The people that in darkness walked
Author: John Morison, 1750-98 Hymnal: Together in Song #274 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The people that in darkness walked
have seen a glorious light;
the light has shined on them who dwelt
in death's surrounding night.
2 To hail you, Sun of righteousness,
the gathering nations come:
rejoicing as when reapers bear
their harvest treasures home.
3 To us a child of hope is born,
to us a Son is given;
him shall the tribes of earth obey,
and all the hosts of heaven.
4 His name shall be the Prince of Peace,
for evermore adored,
the Wonderful, the Counsellor,
the great and mighty Lord.
5 His power increasing still shall spread,
his reign no end shall know:
justice shall guard his throne above
and peace abound below. Topics: Consummation in Christ; Epiphany; Hope; Jesus Christ Reign; Justice; Kingdom of God; Name/s of Jesus; Prophetic Witness; Saints Days and Holy Days Evangelists Scripture: Isaiah 9:2-7 Languages: English Tune Title: CREDITON

Hark the glad sound! the Saviour comes
Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #277 (2005) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Hark the glad sound! the Saviour comes,
the Saviour promised long:
let every heart exult with joy,
and every voice with song!
2 He comes, the prisoners to relieve,
in Satan's bondage held;
the gates of brass before him burst,
the iron fetters yield.
3 He comes the broken hearts to bind,
the bleeding souls to cure;
and with the treasures of his grace
to enrich the humble poor.
4 The sacred year has now revolved,
accepted of the Lord,
when heaven's high promise is fulfilled,
and Israel is restored.
5 Our glad hosannas, Prince of Peace,
thy welcome shall proclaim;
and heaven's exalted arches ring
with thy most honoured name. Topics: Christ Incarnate Promise of the Messiah; Freedom and Liberation Scripture: Isaiah 61:1-3 Languages: English Tune Title: CREDITON

The church of God a kingdom is
Author: L. B. C. L. Muirhead, 1845-1925 Hymnal: Common Praise #325a (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The church of God a kingdom is,
where Christ in power doth reign;
where spirits yearn till, seen in bliss,
their Lord shall come again.
2 Glad companies of saints possess
this church below, above;
and God’s perpetual calm doth bless
their paradise of love.
3 An altar stands within the shrine
whereon, once sacrificed,
is set, immaculate, divine,
the Lamb of God, the Christ.
4 There rich and poor, from countless lands,
praise God on mystic rood;
there nations reach forth holy hands
to take God’s holy food.
5 There pure life-giving streams o’erflow
the sower’s garden-ground;
and faith and hope fair blossoms show,
and fruits of love abound.
6 O King, O Christ, this endless grace
to us and all men bring,
to see the vision of thy face
in joy, O Christ, our King. Topics: Holy Communion; Proper 16 Year B Scripture: 1 John 3:2 Languages: English Tune Title: CREDITON

O holy city, seen of John
Author: Walter Russell Bowie, 1882-1969 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #339b (2010) Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O holy city, seen of John,
where Christ, the Lamb, doth reign,
within whose four-square walls shall come
no night, nor need, nor pain,
and where the tears are wiped from eyes
that shall not weep again.
2 O shame to us who rest content
while lust and greed for gain
in street and shop and tenement
wring gold from human pain,
and bitter lips in blind despair
cry 'Christ hath died in vain!'
3 Give us, O God, the strength to build
the city that hath stood
too long a dream, whose laws are love,
whose ways are brotherhood,
and where the sun that shineth is
God’s grace for human good.
4 Already in the mind of God
that city riseth fair:
lo, how its splendour challenges
the souls that greatly dare;
yea, bids us seize the whole of life
and build its glory there. Topics: General Hymns Church/Fellowship/Mission Scripture: Revelation 21 Languages: English Tune Title: CREDITON
O holy city, seen of John
Come, Holy Ghost, our hearts inspire
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #348 (1986) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Ghost, our hearts inspire,
Let us thine influence prove;
Source of the old prophetic fire,
Fountain of life and love.
2 Come, Holy Ghost--for, moved by thee,
Thy prophets wrote and spoke--
Unlock the truth, thyself the key,
Unseal the sacred book.
3 Expand thy wings, celestial Dove,
Brood o'er our nature's night;
On our disordered spirits move,
And let there now be light.
4 God, through himself, we then shall know,
If thou within us shine;
And sound, with all thy saints below,
The depths of love divine. Topics: Gradual; Pentecost or Whitsunday Languages: English Tune Title: CREDITON
