how pleasant and how fair
the dwellings of thy love,
thy earthly temples, are!
To thine abode
my heart aspires,
with warm desires

where God appoints to hear!
O happy ones that pay
their constant service there!

and happy they
that love the way
To Sion’s hill.

Of wisdom, love, and power,
That ever mortals knew,
That angels ever bore:
All are too mean to speak his worth,
Too mean to set my Savior forth.
2 But O what gentle terms,
What condescending ways
Doth our Redeemer use
To teach his heavenly grace!
Mine eyes with joy ad wonder see
What forms of love he bears for me.
3 Great Prophet of my God,
My tongue would bless thy name;
By thee the joyful news
Of our salvation came:
The joyful news of sins forgiven,
Of hell subdued and peace with heaven.
4 Jesus, my great High-Priest,
Offered his blood and died;
My guilty conscience seeks
No sacrifice beside:
His powerful blood did once atone,
And now it pleads before the throne.
5 My dear almighty Lord,
My conqueror and my king,
Thy scepter and thy sword,
Thy reign of grace, I sing;
Thine is the power: behold I sit
In willing bonds before thy feet.
6 Now let my soul arise,
and tread the tempter down;
my Captain leads me forth
To conquest and a crown.
A feeble saint shall win the day,
Though death and hell obstruct the way.
7 Should all the hosts of death,
And powers of hell unknown,
Put their most dreadful forms
Of rage and mischief on,
I shall be safe, for Christ displays
Superior power, and guardian grace. Languages: English Tune Title: CROFT'S 136TH

We give immortal praise
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #713 (2000) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 We give immortal praise
to God the Father's love
for all our comforts here

he sent his own eternal Son,
to die for sins that we had done.

immortal glory too,
who bought us with his blood
from everlasting woe:
and now he lives, and now he reigns,
and sees the fruit of all his pains.

immortal worship give,
whose new-creating pow'er
makes the dead sinner live:
his work completes the great design,
and fills the soul with joy divine.

be endless honours done,
the undivided Three,
and the mysterious One:
where reason fails with all her pow'rs,
there faith prevails, and love adores. Topics: Joy, Praise and Thanksgiving; The Holy Trinity Scripture: 1 Corinthians 6:20 Languages: English Tune Title: CROFT'S 136TH

Come in, come in, New Year
Author: Shirley Murray, 1931- Hymnal: The Book of Praise #808 (1997) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Come in, come in, New Year
with sparkling winter day!*
Your promise calls us here
to celebrate and pray,
through January's open door
to stride with hopeful step once more.
2 Come in, New Year, and sell
your wares of chance and change:
engage us with your spell
to risk and rearrange,
to feel the Spirit's impulse beat,
to follow down a different street.
3 For though December dies,
still Christmas keeps the light,
the hope in children's eyes,
the star that shatters night;
now Simeon and Anna see
the child who rules all time to be.
4 The calendar of Christ
will mark the seasons' turn;
his story claim our trust;
his love be ours to learn.
For all the world, for young and old,
we pray a year of peace unfold!
