O how shall I receive Thee
Author: Arthur Tozer Russell; Paul Gerhardt Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 94 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O how shall I receive Thee,
How greet Thee, Lord, aright?
All nations long to see Thee,
My Hope, my heart's delight!
O kindle, Lord, most holy,
Thy lamp within my breast.
To do in spirit lowly
All that may please Thee best.
2 Thy Zion palms is strewing,
And branches fresh and fair;
My heart, its powers renewing,
An anthem shall prepare.
My soul puts off her sadness
Thy glories to proclaim;
With all her strength and gladness
She fain would serve Thy Name.
3 I lay in fetters groaning,
Thou comest to set me free!
I stood, my shame bemoaning,
Thou comest to honor me!
A glory Thou dost give me,
A treasure safe on high,
That will not fail nor leave me
As earthly riches fly.
4 Love caused Thine Incarnation,
Love brought Thee down to me,
Thy thirst for my salvation
Procured my liberty.
O love beyond all telling,
That led Thee to embrace,
In love all love excelling,
Our lost and fallen race!
5 Rejoice, then, ye sad-hearted,
Who sit in deepest gloom,
Who mourn o'er joys departed,
And tremble at your doom:
He Who alone can cheer you
Is standing at the door;
He brings His pity near you,
And bids you weep no more.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Advent Used With Tune: ST. THEODULPH

True peace and joy afford.

Your truth direct and keep us
From error's gloomy night.

Among us, bounteous Lord;
Let us in grace and wisdom
Grow daily through Your Word.

Among us, Lord, our strength,
Lest world and Satan fell us
And overcome at length.

Among us with Your love;
Grant steadfastness and help us
To reach our home above.

There Is A Gentle Gardener
Author: H. Brueckner Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: There is a gentle Gard'ner Lyrics: 1 There is a gentle Gard'ner,
Who owns a garden fair,
Where countless blooming flowers
Enjoy His tender care,
Where countless blooming flowers
Enjoy His tender care.
2 He grants them radiant sunshine
And soft, refreshing rain;
Thus nurtured, they must flourish
And sweetest fragrance gain,
Thus nurtured, they must flourish
And sweetest fragrance gain.
3 They fondly love the Gard'ner,
And all to Him incline,
While with their clinging tendrils
They seek Him to entwine,
While with their clinging tendrils
They seek Him to entwine.
4 And when their day is ended,
He takes them to His breast,
And heavenward He bears them
To regions ever blest,
And heavenward He bears them
To regions ever blest.
5 There shall those flowers blossom
In beauty evermore,
Nor cold nor frost shall blight them
On that celestial shore.
6 Thou Gard'ner true and gentle,
Care for us every day,
That we in yonder garden
May thrive and bloom for aye. Topics: Savior Used With Tune: SERING

Author: John Mason Neale; Joseph of the Studium Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 61 hymnals Lyrics:
Let our Choir new anthems raise:
Wake the morn with gladness:
GOD Himself to joy and praise
Turns the Martyrs’ sadness:
This the day that won their crown,
Opened Heav’n’s bright portal;
As they laid the mortal down,
And put on th’ immortal.
