A Song In The Night

Author: Lizzie DeArmond Hymnal: CYBER #7907 First Line: A song floated down thro’ the silence of night Refrain First Line: Peace, peace, peace on the earth! Lyrics: 1 A song floated down thro’ the silence of night, Enfolding each shadowy plain, Glad welcome to Jesus, the dear Christmas guest, All glorious rang the refrain. Refrain: Peace, peace, peace on the earth! Hear the sweet anthem resounding! Peace, peace, peace on the earth! Message the shepherds astounding! Joy, joy, joy to the world! Sorrow and sin ’tis confounding, Heav’n’s gladness voicing, Rapt with rejoicing, Angels are singing their glad refrain. 2 The mountains and hilltops re-echoed the lay, The earth shone with heavenly light; The word of the prophets, the Gospel of love, Came true on that wonderful night. [Refrain] 3 The hope of the years, the Redeemer divine, Is born in the Bethlehem town; From throne to a manger, the Lord of the skies, The King pure and holy comes down.

A Song of Spring Once More We Sing

Author: William H. Groser Hymnal: CYBER #6218 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. A song of spring once more we sing As winter flies away, And changeful hours bring sun and showers To weave a crown for May; With heart and voice we all rejoice, On this returning day. 2. For once again the promise-strain Floats down from days of yore, That fruits of earth shall wake to birth, To bless the toiler’s store; Each annual round with bounties crowned, Till time shall be no more. 3. Thee, Lord, we praise for springtide days, And life’s yet fairer spring; These golden hours, these opening powers, We in glad service bring, Thine own to be, from sin set free, Our Father, Savior, King.

A Sovereign Protector I Have

Author: Augustus M. Toplady Hymnal: CYBER #6231 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. A sovereign protector I have, Unseen, yet forever at hand, Unchangeably faithful to save, Almighty to rule and command. He smiles, and my comforts abound; His grace as the dew shall descend; And walls of salvation surround The soul He delights to defend. 2. Inspirer and hearer of prayer, Thou shepherd and guardian of Thine, My all to Thy covenant care I sleeping and waking resign. If Thou art my shield and my sun, The night is no darkness to me; And fast as my moments roll on, They bring me but nearer to Thee. 3. Kind author, and ground of my hope, Thee, Thee, for my God I avow; My glad Ebenezer set up, And own Thou hast helped me till now. I muse on the years that are past, Wherein my defense Thou hast proved; Nor wilt Thou relinquish at last A sinner so signally loved! Languages: English Tune Title: TREWEN

Rejoicing Together

Author: Susan E. Gammons Hymnal: CYBER #12984 Meter: 10.7.10.7 D First Line: A sower with weeping went forth to sow Lyrics: 1 A sower with weeping went forth to sow— Went bearing the precious seed; He passed where the wayside vines drooped low, Passed over the dewy mead. From early dawn till the stars came out, He scattered the golden grain, Alike on the hillside parchèd with drought, Alike on the fertile plain. 2 The seed soon sprung up which the sower cast; It grew both by night and day; And lo, e’er the harvest time had passed, A reaper strayed that way. He reaped the grain with a happy song; His sickle was keen and bright; Heavy laden with sheaves he passed along In the rosy, sunset light. 3 When the Lord of the Harvest shall come to receive And garner His ripened wheat, The sower and reaper together, their sheaves With rejoicing shall lay at His feet; Together shall enter the heav’nly rest, To sow and to reap no more; Together shall join in the song of the blest, For the weeping time will be o’er.

A star, a star is burning, The brightest in the sky— Is shining over a stable; Oh, tell me, shepherds, why? Within I see a mother, A baby on her knee: Is this a royal palace? Can this a monarch be? Refrain We bow before the Infant, To Him our homage bring; Our God in flesh appeareth, Of man and angels King. 2. And lo! a sudden glory! The angel hosts appear, Ten thousand times ten thousand, Their monarch to revere. Oh, blind the eyes of mortals To such a glorious sight! Oh, sleepers, wake and witness The wonders of this night!

The Star In The East

Author: Thomas Campbell Hymnal: CYBER #7908 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8 First Line: A star appeared, and peaceful threw Lyrics: 1 A star appeared, and peaceful threw Around its holy ray; It caught the faithful Magi’s view, And led the wondrous way, From far famed Persia’s smiling bowers, Fair land of beauty, fruits and flowers. 2 Each heart throughout the gazing throng What anxious gladness fills, While slowly moved that star along O’er Judah’s sacred hills, And softly fixed its mellow light On distant Bethlehem’s joyful night! 3 There, unknown to the rich and great, Or perfumed halls of state, Where shining golden lamps so bright Scoff at the silent night, Hear music’s notes, so holy, sweet, They rise and fall ’mid joy complete. 4 The Prince of Peace, so young, so fair, In lowly state He slept; While near, with kind parental care, The mother’s watch was kept. Let sweetest harp of Judah rise, And Gentile hymns climb to the skies! Languages: English Tune Title: MEIRINGEN

The Slighted Stranger

Author: Charles H. Gabriel Hymnal: CYBER #6147 First Line: A Stranger stands outside the door Refrain First Line: He was wounded for thy transgressions Lyrics: 1. A Stranger stands outside the door, And longs thy Guest to be; He knows thy name, for o’er and o’er He softly calls to thee! His hands are pierced, His brow is torn, His face is sad, but sweet— It is the Lord of Paradise! Arise, thy Savior greet. Refrain He was wounded for thy transgressions; He was bruisèd for thy sin; Yet He stands at thy heart’s door pleading, Why, O why not let Him in? 2. From lonely, dark Gethsemane, Thru Pilate’s hall of shame, Up over cruel Calvary, To thee in love He came! Despised! Rejected! Crucified! O love, O grace unknown, That He should still remember thee, And claim thee for His own! [Refrain] 3. Yet still He waits and calls to thee, Although ye scarce can hear The pleading voice, so often has It fallen on thine ear: O soul, arise and let Him in, Lest from the bolted door In sorrow He should turn away, To call for thee no more. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [A Stranger stands outside the door]
