Jesus thou everlasting word!
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: John 1 Lyrics: 1 Jesus thou everlasting word!
Almighty God and Sov'reign Lord:
Who art from all eternity?
All things were made and form'd by thee.
2 Thou art the Lord or Earth & Heav'n,
By thee eternal life is giv'n:
Thou art the great and shining light
Which brings the way of truth to sight.
3 Jesus, the glorious son of God,
Took on himself our flesh and blood;
When he was born the Virgin's Son
To make the sons of men his own.
4 That mighty word is come to view,
Which Men or Angels never knew;
Till in the flesh it was reveal'd
And all the prophecies fulfill'd.
5 That blessed word to me reveal
My Lord! and let me taste and feel
That pow'rful word, and light divine,
With life and grace in me to shine.

O little Love, who comes again
Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: John 1:1-14 Lyrics: 1 O little Love, who comes again,
the Word made flesh to make God plain,
O Child who shines, the Jesus light,
disarm the world,
this Christmas night!
2 No heart so hard it may not move,
no hate resist your open love;
defenceless in our hands you come
to Herod's power,
to Mary's home.
3 As all the wise look for your star,
so I must follow where you are:
as you are light so must I be,
as you are peace,
be peace in me. Topics: Christ Incarnate Christmas and Epiphany; Christian Year Season of Epiphany; Jesus Word of God; Light Used With Tune: PEACE CAROL
O little Love, who comes again
As stars adorn the night-veiled sky
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. (b. 1944) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: John 1:8 Lyrics: 1 As stars adorn the night-veiled sky,
arrayed like jewels rare and bright,
so shine God's saints in every age
to give the world new hop, new light.
2 The light saints bear is not their own
but shines through them as gift and sign:
to show how God can use and bless
frail human means for ends divine.
Through saints we glimpse the light of Christ,
the Morning Star that crowns the night,
whose rising heralds God's new day,
the promised dawn of life and light.
4 That light is ours to claim and share,
not merely praise or gaze upon:
for all who are baptized become
light-bearers through the Risen One.
5 The saints inspire and challenge us
our holy calling to embrace:
to bear Christ's light in our own day,
to be the vessels of God's grace. Topics: The Church Celebrates Oneness with the Church in Heaven; Communion of Saints; Jesus Names and images for; Light Used With Tune: WAREHAM

Whose promise here we claim,
Whose gifts of grace are freely poured
On all who name Your name;

We stand before Your throne,
Intent to serve You all our days
And make Your glory known.
2 Christ the unchanging Word
To ev'ry passing age,
Whose timeless teachings still are heard
Set forth on Scripture's page;
Transform our thought and mind,
Enlighten all who read,
Within Your word by faith to find
The bread of life indeed.
3 Christ the redeeming Son,
Who shares our human birth,
And by His death salvation won
For ev'ry child of earth;
Inspire our hearts, we pray,
To tell Your love abroad,
That all may honour Christ today
And follow Him as Lord.
4 Christ the unfading Light
Of everlasting day,
Our Morning Star in splendour bright,
The Life, the Truth, the Way;
That light of truth You give
To servants as to friends,
Your way to walk, Your life to live,
Till earth's brief journey ends.
5 Christ the ascended King
Exalted high above,
Whose praise unending ages sing,
Whom yet unseen we love;
When mortal life is past
Your voice from heaven's throne
Shall call Your children home at last
To know as we are known. Topics: Mission and Witness Used With Tune: DIADEMATA
