There's a Friend for little children
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #308 (1898) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 There’s a Friend for little children
Above the bright blue sky,
A Friend who never changeth,
Whose love will never die;
Unlike our friends by nature,
Who change with changing years,
This Friend is always worthy
The precious name He bears.
2 There’s a rest for little children,
Above the bright blue sky,
For those who love the Saviour,
And Abba, Father, cry,
A rest from every turmoil,
From sin and danger free,
Where every little pilgrim
Shall rest eternally.
3 There’s a home for little children
Above the bright blue sky,
Where Jesus reigns in glory,--
A home of peace and joy;
No home on earth is like it,
Nor can with it compare,
For every one is happy,
Nor could be happier, there.
4 There’s a crown for little children
Above the bright blue sky,
And all who look to Jesus
Shall wear it by and by;
A crown of brightest glory,
Which He will then bestow
On all who found His favor
And loved His name below.
5 There’s a song for little children
Above the bright blue sky,
A song that will not weary,
Though sung continually;
A song which even angels
Can never, never sing;
They know not Christ as Saviour,
But worship Him as King.
6 There's a robe for little children
Above the bright blue sky,
And a harp of sweetest music,
And a palm of victory.
All, all above is treasured,
And found in Christ alone;
O come, dear little children,
That all may be your own. Topics: Christ Friend of Children; Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: PRAISE

Hail, to the Lord's Anointed
O Lord, Ordain Thy Servant
Author: P. C. Paulsen Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #145 (1927) Lyrics: 1 O Lord, ordain Thy servant
And turn to him Thy face
That he with spirit fervent
May preach Thy Word of grace;
And with Thy gifts anointed
By prophecy and pray'r,
Let him go forth appointed
To serve Thy church with care.
2 With tender mercy lead him
And set him on the Rock;
In pastures green Thou feed him
That he may feed Thy flock;
The gospel of salvation
Put Thou upon his lips
and lend him inspiration
To lead them in Thy steps.
3 When hosts of hell assail him
And vex him with their might,
Thy mercy shall not fail him,
Nor shall Thy grace and light.
If darkness should enfold him
And cloud his spirit's eye,
Thy mighty hand uphold him
And guide him from on high.
4 Oh, meet him in his chamber
And listen to his prayer;
With kindness him remember,
Surround him with Thy care,
And help him in his calling
To teach the heaven-born,
To warn the sinners falling
And comfort those who mourn.
5 Thus, in Thy service use us
From early morn till night;
Let evil not confuse us,
Nor dim Thy Spirit's light.
Thy people do Thou nourish,
With Sacrament and Word,
That fields of thine may flourish
And bear Thee fruit, O Lord!

O living Bread from heaven
Author: J. Rist Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #148 (1913) Lyrics: 1 O living Bread from heaven,
How hast Thou fed Thy guest!
The gifts Thou now hast given
Have filled my heart with rest.
O wondrous food of blessing,
O cup that heals our woes!
My heart this gift possessing,
In thankful song o’erflows.
2 My Lord, Thou here hast led me
Within Thy holiest place,
And there Thyself hast fed me
With treasures of Thy grace:
And Thou hast freely given,
What earth could never buy,--
The bread of Life from heaven,
That now I shall not die.
3 Thou gav'st all I wanted,
The power can death destroy;
And Thou has freely granted
The cup of endless joy.
Ah, Lord, I do not merit
The favor Thou hast shown,
And all my soul and spirit
Bow down before Thy throne.
4 Lord, grant me that, thus strengthened
With heavenly food, while here
My course on earth is lengthened,
I serve with holy fear;
And when Thou call’st my spirit
To leave this world below,
I enter, through Thy merit,
Where joys unmingled flow.

Hail to the Lord's anointed
Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #197 (1913) Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians,
With all your hearts, this morn!
O hear the blessed tidings,
"The Lord, the Christ, is born,"
Now brought us by the angels
That stand about God's throne;
Oh lovely are the voices
That make such tidings known!
2 O hearken to their singing!
This Child shall be your friend;
The Father so hath willed it,
That thus your woes should end.
The Son is freely given,
That in Him ye may have
The Father's grace and blessing,
And know He loves to save.
3 Nor deem the form too lowly
That clothes Him at this hour;
For know ye what it hideth?
'Tis God's almighty power.
Though now within the manger
So poor and weak He lies,
He is the Lord of all things,
He reigns above the skies.
4 Sin, death, and hell, and Satan
Have lost the victory;
This Child shall overthrow them,
As ye shall surely see.
Their wrath shall naught avail them;
Fear not, their reign is o'er;
This Child shall overthrow them,--
O hear, and doubt no more! Topics: The Church Year Christmas; The Church Year Christmas Tune Title: [Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians]

Awake,--awake, O Zion!
Rejoice, all ye believers
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #238 (1898) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, all ye believers,
And let your lights appear!
The evening is advancing,
And darker night is near.
The Bridegroom is arising,
And soon He draweth nigh;
Up, pray, and watch, and wrestle!
At midnight comes the cry.
2 The watchers on the mountain
Proclaim the Bridegroom near;
Go meet Him as He cometh,
With hallelujahs clear.
The marriage-feast is waiting,
The gates wide open stand;
Up, up, ye heirs of glory!
The Bridegroom is at hand.
3 Ye saints, who here in patience
Your cross and sufferings bore,
Shall live and reign forever,
When sorrow is no more.
Around the throne of glory,
The Lamb ye shall behold,
In triumph cast before Him
Your diadems of gold.
4 Our Hope and Expectation,
O Jesus, now appear;
Arise, Thou Sun so longed for,
O'er this benighted sphere!
With hearts and hands uplifted,
We plead, O Lord, to see
The day of earth’s redemption,
That brings us unto Thee. Topics: Christ Second Advent of; Christ Bridegroom; Heavenly-Mindedness; Hope; Christian Joy; The Judgment Languages: English Tune Title: PRAISE
