Thank God For Bethlehem

Author: Richard W. Adams Hymnal: CYBER #11596 Person Name: Richard W. Adams First Line: Astonishing grace: A race so defiled Lyrics: 1 Astonishing grace: A race so defiled, So buried in sin, can be reconciled! For God all is possible, no cause too high; See Wisdom and Love to His creatures draw nigh. 2 The Spirit of God contends with our will, Our obstinate pride, yet Love sought us still; He stooped down from Heaven, assumed flesh and bone, Laid hold of our nature, and joined to His own. 3 Immanuel came down, the world to redeem, Our God in the flesh, the Savior supreme; Our sins to forgive and our souls wash in blood, So man may again be united to God! 4 O glorious hope, to see face to face; Sing Bethlehem’s praise, hosannas to grace! Such love beyond measure, what mercy so mild, O wonder of wonders, that God was a child! Languages: English Tune Title: LYONS

The Triumphant Song of Deborah And Barak

Author: Richard Adams Hymnal: CYBER #12448 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Person Name: Richard Adams First Line: Because He Israel hath revenged Lyrics: 1 Because He Israel hath revenged, Bless ye therefore the Lord: Because the people offered up Themselves of free accord. Give ear, O kings, ye princes hear, Sing to the Lord I will; I, even I’ll sing to the Lord, The God of Israel. 2 Lord, when Thou wentest from Seir, Didst march from Edom’s field; The earth did tremble, heavens drop, The clouds their showers yield; And in the presence of the Lord, The mountains melting fell, E’en Sinai drooped before the Lord, The God of Israel. 3 In days of Shamgar, Anath’s son, The roads in Jael’s days, Abandoned were: the travelers They walked in lost by-ways. And villagers did cease to be, They ceased in Israel: Until I, Deborah, arose, Mother in Israel. 4 New gods they chose, then cruel wars Entered their gates within; With forty thousand Israelites No shield or spear was seen. My heart to Israel’s rulers is, That did of free accord Present themselves among the folk: Bless ye therefore the Lord. 5 Speak ye your minds, all ye that do Upon white asses ride; Ye that in judgment sit, and ye That walk the way beside. Who from the archers’ noise are freed, There shall they now record, In places where they water draw, The just acts of the Lord. 6 His righteous works to them who dwell In Israel’s towns relate, Then shall the people of the Lord Go down unto the gate. Awake, O Deborah, wake and sing; And now, Barak, arise, Abinoam’s son, to dry the tears From Israel’s captive eyes. 7 Unto the remnant he gave rule Above the nobles then Among the folk: the Lord gave me Rule over mighty men. From Ephraim a root against Proud Amalek there was: Thy followers, O Benjamin, Among thy folk did pass. 8 From out of Machir governors Descended also then, And out of Zebulun came they That wield the writer’s pen. From Issachar marched princes out, His peers with Deborah went, And also was Barak on foot Into the valley sent. 9 Because of those divisions that In Reuben did appear, Great fears and anxious thoughts of heart Among them then there were. Why didst thou with the sheep folds stay? The bleating flocks to hear? For Reuben his divisions sad Heart searchings great there were. 10 Beyond the Jordan Gilead sat; Why Dan in ships reside? On seashore why Asher did stay, And in his creeks abide? But Zebulun and Napthali Were people who did yield Their lives in danger unto death Upon the open field. 11 Thus Israel’s kings came to the fray, And crowns of Canaan fought, In Tanach by Megiddo’s streams; No golden coin they sought. They warred from Heav’n—the stars in course Fought Sisera that day; And Kishon’s river, ancient brook, Swept all his strength away. 12 O thou, my soul, hast trod down strength, The horses broken were; By plunging, trampling, galloping Of mighty princes there. "O curse Meroz, her people curse," Jehovah’s angel said: "For they came not to help the Lord, ’Gainst Sisera to aid." 13 Jael the Kenite, Heber’s wife, ’Bove women blest shall be: Above the women in the tent, Most blessèd one is she. He water asked; she gave him milk, In lordly dish she fetched Him butter forth, then to the nail She forth her left hand stretched. 14 Her right the workman’s hammer held, To strike Sisera dead: She struck and pierced his temple through, And then cut off his head. So at her feet he bowed, he fell, Before her laid he down; He breathed his last, and joined the dead, Destroyèd on the ground. 15 Through latticed window Sisera’s Mother looked, and feared his fate; "O tell me why, in his return, Why is my son so late? His chariot wheels, why tarry they?" Her ladies wise replied, But to herself she answer made, "Have they not sped?" she cried. 16 The spoil to each, a maid or twain, Divided not have they? With Sisera have they not shared A many colored prey? Of diverse colored needlework, Wrought curious on each side, Of various colors, meet for necks Of those who spoils divide? 17 So perished are Thine enemies, O Lord; but let all those Who love You, be they like the sun That in his strength forth goes. Then came a rest of forty years, With peace throughout the land; Then Israel turned again from God, And fell in Midian’s hand. Languages: English Tune Title: A LITTLE KINGDOM

Looking For Our Lord And Savior

Author: Richard W. Adams Hymnal: CYBER #12539 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Person Name: Richard W. Adams Lyrics: 1 Looking for our Lord and Savior, Coming on the clouds of Heav’n, Clad in power and shining glory, Come to end the reign of sin. Long foretold by prophets, seers: First the tribulation ends, Then the sun and moon will darken, And the stars shall fall from Heav’n. 2 All the heavens’ powers are shaken, And appears the sign on high, That the Son of Man, returning, Once again to earth draws nigh. All the tribes of earth now mourning, As they hear the trumpet blast, And they look on Him they piercèd, Weeping bitter tears at last. 3 First He sends His reaper angels To uproot and bind the weeds, Set in bundles for the furnace, As befits their evil deeds. Sown by Satan’s evil malice, Children of the wicked one, They refused to bend the knee, And to bow to God’s own Son. 4 Then shall all the righteous shine forth In their Father’s kingdom grand; See them gathered from the four winds And the earth’s remotest land, His elect from every nation, All the saints Heav’n’s borders hold, All the children of the kingdom, Gathered to the Shepherd’s fold. 5 So He severs just from wicked, Rebels casts into the fire; From the furnace hear the wailing, Gnashing teeth upon the pyre. All with ears, now hear the lesson: Day and hour, no one knows; So be ready for the harvest, Be the wheat that golden grows. Languages: English Tune Title: AUSTRIA

எம் பாவம் யாம் ஒப்புக்கொள்கிறோம்

Author: Richard W. Adams; S. John Barathi Hymnal: CYBER #15644 Person Name: Richard W. Adams Lyrics: 1 Our guilt do we confess today, Your law did we reject; So little truth and mercy here— Your Word sees no respect. 2 We swear, we lie, we kill and steal, See harlotry increase; We break restraint, and blood on blood, Ignore the law of peace. 3 Our land, it mourns, we waste away, For wisdom seek we not; Destruction will our portion be, If God we have forgot. 4 To crystals, stone, and gold we pray, Those worthless things we preach; Those sightless eyes, unhearing ears, In vain do we beseech. 5 We well deserve the charge You bring, Upon us lays the blame; Contentious, proud, we stumble on, Our glory turns to shame. 6 Show us that only in Your Word Do truth and mercy live; Send priests and prophets to instruct, And Your pure wisdom give. 7 Have mercy, Lord, reject us not, Draw us to seek Your face; Direct our feet and deeds to You, Restore us by Your grace. 8 Lord, melt these icy hearts of stone, Make us Your counsel seek, And sacrifice to You alone, With humble hearts and meek.
