The Heavenly Song
Author: Jessie G. McCartee Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: All hail to Thee! All hail to Thee! Lyrics: 1 All hail to Thee! All hail to Thee!
Thou Lamb enthroned in glory;
We’ll praise Thee through eternity,
And cast our crowns before Thee.
2 No more the helpless babe who slept
In Bethlehem’s lowly manger,
Nor man of sorrow, He who wept,
On earth a lonely stranger.
3 No thorny crown around Thy brow,
No more in anguish bleeding,
Angelic hosts before Thee bow,
But not for mercy pleading.
4 Thy blood-bought flock all safely rest
Within Thy fold in Heaven,
Their happy souls forever blest,
Their many sins forgiven.
All hail to Thee! All hail to Thee!
Thou Lamb enthroned in glory;
We’ll praise Thee through eternity,
And cast our crowns before Thee. Used With Tune: ST. COLUMBA
The Heavenly Song
O Joy Of Earth!
Author: John H. Anketell Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: O joy of earth! A Savior’s birth Lyrics: 1 O joy of earth! A Savior’s birth
To fallen man is granted;
The song of love is sung above,
And shepherds hear it chanted.
2 Their wakeful eyes with glad surprise
See white-robed angels shining;
The ravished ear a song can hear,
All melody combining:
3 "Be glory given in highest Heaven,
To God through years unending;
On earth may peace and love increase
God will to men descending."
4 In haste they seek that Infant meek,
Whose cradle is a manger,
And at His feet with homage meet
They hail the Heaven-born stranger.
5 And we with them in Bethlehem
Will seek the Lord of glory,
Will sing His praise through endless days
And tell His wondrous story.
6 Sweet Babe, so frail! The thorn, the nail
Shall cause Thee bitter sorrow;
But soon Thy night shall end in light,
And bring an Easter morrow.
7 Thy star divine shall ever shine
To guide the pilgrim stranger;
While faith shall own Thy love alone,
And worship at Thy manger! Used With Tune: ST. COLUMBA Text Sources: Gospel and Epistle Hymns for the Christian Year (New York: The Church Record Company, 1889)

Creator God, You Made the Earth
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: Creator God, you made the earth,
A gift beyond comparing!
You called it good, you gave it worth,
You placed it in our caring.
You gave your gift of Sabbath rest,
Your pattern for creation.
You give us times to heal, to bless,
To join in celebration.
You give us Christ, who reconciled
The things of earth and heaven.
In him, you call each one your child!
What wondrous love you've given!
Because we've turned away from you,
This world still needs your healing.
Creation longs to be made new
Through Christ, your love revealing.
God, by your Spirit, may we be
Communities of caring,
That as we're healed, your world may see
The hope that we are sharing. Topics: Covenant/Salvation History; Creation/Earth Day/Environmnet; Sunday/Sabbath Scripture: Colossians 3:12-16 Used With Tune: ST. COLUMBA

LORD, from the Depths to You I Cry!
Our Messiah Came
Author: Tamra N. Lee Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Our Messiah came for all mankind Lyrics: 1 Our Messiah came for all mankind,
To bring us back to God!
For we like sheep had gone astray,
We all the broad road trod.
2 It broke His heart to see us go
And perish in our sin;
So Jesus came from Heav’n to earth
Our souls from hell to win.
3 In Bethlehem our king was born,
And in a manger lay;
The prophet Micah did foretell:
His goings forth for aye.
4 His life was filled with doing good,
And teaching men of peace;
His holiness, His truth and love
Brought proud men to their knees.
5 The Jewish rulers hated Him,
And plotted to destroy
The heav’nly King whose life did bring
The way of peace and joy.
And when they’d scourged and beaten Him,
They hung Him on a tree;
With nails and spear His hands and side
Were pierced for you and me.
But death could not restrain our Lord,
For He is King of life!
And bursting from the darkened tomb,
Conquered Satan, sin and strife.
Dear Savior how can I give thanks
For giving me Your grace?
I’ll give my life, my love, my all,
Forever sing Your praise! Used With Tune: ST. COLUMBA
Our Messiah Came
My Life's Fountain
Author: Jessie A. Lee Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: My Saviour, Father, Guide and Friend Lyrics: 1 My Saviour, Father, Guide and Friend,
A solace to the mourning,
A wise Creator, powerful Hand;
A Judge to the scorning.
2 He leads me by His loving hand,
His gentle voice does guide me;
He vowed that He would ne’er forsake
And always walk beside me.
3 When I am frightened He is there
To comfort and sustain me.
His words give wisdom to my ear,
And peace will always claim me.
4 My Saviour has made me to go
With Him o’er plain or mountain;
And I will gladly follow Him,
For He is my life’s fountain. Used With Tune: ST. COLUMBA
My Life's Fountain
The rush may rise where waters flow
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The rush may rise where waters flow,
and flags beside the stream;
but soon their verdure fades and dies
before the scorching beam:
2 So is the sinner’s hope cut off;
or, if it transient rise,
’tis like the spider’s airy web,
from ev'ry breath that flies.
3 Fix'd on his house he leans; his house
and all its props decay:
he holds it fast; but, while he holds,
the tott’ring frame gives way.
4 Fair, in his garden, to the sun,
his boughs with verdure smile;
and, deeply fix'd, his spreading roots
unshaken stand a while.
5 But forth the sentence flies from Heav’n,
that sweeps him from his place;
which then denies him for its lord,
nor owns it knew his face.
6 Lo! this the joy of wicked men,
who Heav’n’s high laws despise:
they quickly fall; and in their room
as quickly others rise.
7 But, for the just, with gracious care,
God will his pow'r employ;
he’ll teach their lips to sing his praise,
and fill their hearts with joy. Scripture: Job 8:11-22 Used With Tune: ERIN

From Whence These Dire Portents Around?
Author: Samuel Wesley, Jr. Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 55 hymnals First Line: From whence these dire portents around Lyrics: 1 From whence these dire portents around,
That earth and Heav’n amaze?
Wherefore do earthquakes cleave the ground?
Why hides the sun his rays?
2 Not thus did Sinai’s trembling head
With sacred horror nod,
Beneath the dark pavilion spread
Of legislative God!
3 Thou earth, thy lowest center shake,
With Jesu sympathize!
Thou sun, as hell’s deep gloom be black,
’Tis thy creator dies!
4 What tongue the tortures can describe
Of this vindictive hour?
Wrath He alone had will to share
As He alone had power!
5 See streaming from th’accursèd tree
His all-atoning blood!
Is this the Infinite? ’Tis He!
My Savior and my God!
6 For me these pangs His soul assail,
For me the death is born!
My sin gave sharpness to the nail,
And pointed every thorn.
7 Let sin no more my soul enslave,
Break, Lord, the tyrant’s chain;
Oh, save me whom Thou cam’st to save,
Nor bleed nor die in vain! Used With Tune: ST. COLUMBA Text Sources: Poems on Several Occasions (London, E. Say, 1736)
