O Sing a Song of Bethlehem

Author: Louis F. Benson Hymnal: BH1991 #120 (1991) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. O sing a song of Bethlehem, Of shepherds watching there, And of the news that came to them From angels in the air. The light that shone on Bethlehem Fills all the world today; Of Jesus' birth and peace on earth The angels sing alway. 2. O sing a song of Nazareth, Of sunny days of joy, O sing of fragrant flowers' breath, And of the sinless Boy; For now the flow'rs of Nazareth In ev'ry heart may grow; Now spreads the fame of His dear name On all the winds that blow. 3. O sing a song of Galilee, Of lake and woods and hil, Of Him who walked upon the sea And bade its waves be still; For tho' like waves on Galilee, Dark seas of trouble roll, When faith has heard the Master's word, Falls peace upon the soul. 4. O sing a song of Calvary, Its glory and dismay; Of Him who hung upon the tree And took our sins away. For He who died on Calvary Is risen from the grave, And Christ, our Lord, by heav'n adored, Is mighty now to save. Scripture: Luke 2:11 Languages: English Tune Title: KINGSFOLD

Thou Didst Leave Thy Throne

Author: Emily E. S. Elliott Hymnal: BH1991 #121 (1991) Meter: Irregular First Line: Thou didst leave Thy throne and Thy kingly crown Lyrics: 1 Thou didst leave Thy throne and Thy kingly crown, When Thou camest to earth for me; But in Bethlehem's home was there found no room For Thy holy nativity. O come to my heart, Lord Jesus, There is room in my heart for Thee. 2 Heaven's arches rang when the angels sang, Proclaiming Thy royal degree; But of lowly birth didst Thou come to earth, And in great humility. O come to my heart, Lord Jesus, There is room in my heart for Thee. 3 The foxes found rest, and the birds their nest In the shade of the forest tree; But Thy couch was the sod, O Thou Son of God, In the deserts of Galilee. O come to my heart, Lord Jesus, There is room in my heart for Thee. 4 Thou camest, O Lord, with the living word That should set Thy people free; But with mocking scorn, and with crown of thorn, They bore Thee to Calvary. O come to my heart, Lord Jesus, There is room in my heart for Thee. 5 When the heavens shall ring, and the angels sing, At Thy coming to victory, Let Thy voice call me home, saying "Yet there is room, There is room at My side for thee." My heart shall rejoice, Lord Jesus, When Thou comest and callest for me. Scripture: Philippians 2:5 Languages: English Tune Title: MARGARET

Tell of the years of His labor, Tell of the sorrow He bore, He was despised and afflicted, Homeless, rejected, and poor. Tell me the story of Jesus, Write on my heart ev'ry word; Tell me the story most precious, Sweetest that ever was heard. 3. Tell of the cross where they nailed Him, Writhing in anguish and pain; Tell of the grave where they laid Him, Tell how He liveth again. Love in that story so tender, Clearer than ever I see: Stay, let me weep while you whisper, Love paid the ransom for me. Tell me the story of Jesus, Write on my heart ev'ry word; Tell me the story most precious, Sweetest that ever was heard. Scripture: Luke 1:4 Languages: English Tune Title: STORY OF JESUS

All fear before Thy presence flies; Care, anguish, sorrow melt away, Where'er Thy healing beams arise: O Jesus, nothing may I see, Nothing desire, or seek, but Thee. 4. In suff'ring, be Thy love my peace; In weakness, be Thy love my pow'r; And when the storms of life shall cease, O Jesus, in that solemn hour, In death as life be Thou my guide, And save me, who for me hast died.

The Lord of earth and heaven rode on in lowly state, Nor scorned that little children should on His bidding wait. 3.

O may we ever praise Him with heart and life and voice, And in His blissful presence eternally rejoice. Scripture: Matthew 21:9 Languages: English Tune Title: ELLACOMBE
