The Lord whom earth and sea and sky
Author: Venantius Fortunatus, 530-609; J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Lord whom earth and sea and sky
Adore and praise and magnify,
Who o'er their threefold fabric reigns,
The Virgin's spotless womb contains.
2 And he whose will is ever done
By moon and seas, by stars and sun,
Is borne upon a maiden's breast,
Whom God's foreseeing grace possessed.
3 How blest that Mother, in whose shrine
The very Word of God divine,
The maker of the earth and sky,
Was pleased in fleshly form to lie.
4 Blest in the message Gabriel brought,
Blest in the work the Spirit wrought,
Blest evermore, who brought to birth
The long-Desired of all the earth.
5 O Jesu, Virgin-born, to thee
Eternal praise and glory be,
Whom with the Father we adore
And Holy Spirit, evermore. Amen. Topics: The Blessed Virgin Mary; Office Hymn; The Christian Year Festivals and Other Holy Days: Proper; The Annunciation March 25th Used With Tune: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR

The Lamb's High Banquet
Author: J. M. Neale Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 24 hymnals First Line: The Lamb's high banquet called to share Lyrics: 1 The Lamb's high banquet called to share,
arrayed in garments white and fair,
the Red Sea past, we now would sing
to Jesus our triumphant King.
2 Upon the altar of the cross
his body hath redeemed our loss;
and, tasting of his precious blood,
our life is hid with him in God.
3 That paschal eve God's arm was bared,
the devastating angel spared;
by strength of hand our hosts went free
from Pharaoh's ruthless tyranny.
4 Now Christ, our Passover, is slain,
the Lamb of God without a stain;
the true oblationoffered here,
our own unleavened bread sincere.
5 Christ rises conqueror from the grace,
from death returning, strong to save,
with his right hand the tyrant chains,
and pradise for us regains.
5 All praise be thine, O risen Lord,
from death to endless life restored;
all praise to God the Father be
and Holy Ghost eternally.

His birth; the nations learn His name;

Of eastern sages to their God.

Go, worship where the Savior lies;
Angels and kings before Him bow,
Those gods on high and gods below.

And earth confess her sovereign king. Used With Tune: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719

When Christ's Appearing Was Made Known
Author: Coelius Sedulius, 5th cent. Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When Christ’s appearing was made known,
King Herod trembled for his throne;
But he who offers heav'nly birth
Seeks not the kingdoms of this earth.
2 The eastern sages saw from far
And followed on his guiding star;
By light their way to light they trod,
And by their gifts confessed their God.
3 Within the Jordan’s sacred flood
The heav'nly Lamb in meekness stood
That he, of whom no sin was known,
Might cleanse his people from their own.
4 And oh, what a miracle divine,
When water reddened into wine!
He spoke the word, and forth it flowed
In streams that nature ne’er bestowed.
5 For this his glad epiphany
All glory unto Jesus be,
Whom with the Father we adore,
And Holy Ghost forevermore. Topics: Epiphany Used With Tune: PUER NOBIS Text Sources: Tr. composite
When Christ's Appearing Was Made Known
Give Thanks to GOD, He Reigns Above
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 128 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Give thanks to GOD, He reigns above,
kind are His thoughts, His name is love:
His mercy ages past have known,
and ages long to come shall own.
2 From age to age exalt His name,
God and His grace are still the same:
He fills the hungry soul with food,
and feeds the poor with every good.
3 But if their hearts rebel, and rise
against the God that rules the skies;
if they reject His heav'nly word,
and slight the counsels of the LORD.
4 He'll bring their spirits to the ground,
and no deliv'rer shall be found:
laden with grief they waste their breath
in darkness and the shades of death.
5 Then to the LORD they raise their cries,
He makes the dawning light arise,
and scatters all that dismal shade
that hung so heavy round their head.
6 He cuts the bars of brass in two,
and lets the smiling pris'ner thro';
takes off the load of guilt and grief,
and gives the lab'ring soul relief.
7 O may the sons of men record
the wondrous goodness of the LORD!
How great His works! how kind His ways!
let every tongue pronounce His praise. Topics: Thanksgiving Scripture: Psalm 107 Used With Tune: PUER NOBIS
Give Thanks to GOD, He Reigns Above
