O Jesus, King most wonderful
Author: Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #539 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, King most wonderful;
thou conqueror renowned,
thou sweetness most ineffable,
in whom all joys are found!
2 When once thou visitest the heart,
then truth begins to shine,
then earthly vanities depart,
then kindles love divine.
3 O Jesus, light of all below!
Thou fount of living fire,
surpassing all the joys we know,
and all we can desire:
4 Jesus, may all confess thy name,
thy wondrous love adore;
and, seeking thee, themselves inflame
to seek thee more and more.
*5 Thee may our tongues for ever bless,
thee may we love alone,
and ever in our lives express
the image of thine own.
*6 Abide with us, and let thy light
shine, Lord, on every heart;
dispel the darkness of our night,
and joy to all impart.
7 Jesus, our love and joy, to thee,
the Father's only Son,
all might, and praise, and glory be,
while endless ages run. Topics: Proper 14 Year B Scripture: John 1:4 Languages: English Tune Title: METZLER'S REDHEAD NO. 66

O Lord of heaven and earth and sea
O Love divine, how sweet thou art!
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #541 (2000) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O love divine, how sweet thou art!
When shall I find my longing heart
all taken up by thee?
I thirst, I faint, I die to prove
the greatness of redeeming love,
the love of Christ to me.
2 Stronger his love than death or hell;
its riches are unsearchable:
the first-born sons of light
desire in vain its depth to see;
they cannot reach the mystery,
the length and breadth and height.
*3 God only knows the love of God;
O that it now were shed abroad
in this poor stony heart!
For love I sigh, for love I pine;
this only portion, Lord, be mine,
be mine this better part.
4 For ever would I take my seat
with Mary at the Master's feet:
be this my happy choice;
my only care, delight, and bliss,
my joy, my heaven on earth, be this,
to hear the Bridegroom's voice!
5 Thy only love do I require,
nothing on earth beneath desire,
nothing in heaven above:
let earth and heaven, and all things go,
give me thine only love to know,
give me thine only love. Topics: Lent I Year A; Proper 6 Year A; Proper 11 Year C Scripture: 1 Peter 1:12 Languages: English Tune Title: CORNWALL

Author: George Matheson, 1842-1906 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #542 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O love that wilt not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
that in thine ocean depths its flow
may richer, fuller be.
2 O light that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to thee;
my heart restores its borrowed ray,
that in thy sunshine's blaze its day
may brighter, fairer be.
3 O joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
and feel the promise is not vain,
that morn shall tearless be.
4 O cross that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from thee;
I lay in dust life's glory dead,
and from the ground there blossoms red
life that shall endless be. Topics: Proper 5 Year C; Proper 14 Year B; Funerals, Commemoration, Remembrance and All Souls Scripture: Genesis 9:12-16 Languages: English Tune Title: ST MARGARET

O sing a song of Bethlehem
Author: Louis F. Benson, 1855-1930 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #545 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O sing a song of Bethlehem,
of shepherds watching there,
and of the news that came to them
from angels in the air:
the light that shone on Bethlehem
fills all the world today;
of Jesus’ birth and peace on earth
the angels sing alway.
2 O sing a song of Nazareth,
of sunny days of joy,
O sing of fragrant flowers’ breath,
and of the sinless Boy:
for now the flowers of Nazareth
in every heart may grow;
now spreads the fame of his dear name
on all the winds that blow.
3 O sing a song of Galilee,
of lake and woods and hill,
of him who walked upon the sea
and bade the waves be still:
for though, like waves on Galilee,
dark seas of trouble roll,
when faith has heard the Master’s word
falls peace upon the soul.
4 O sing a song of Calvary,
its glory and dismay;
of him who hung upon the tree
and took our sins away:
for he who died on Calvary
is risen from the grave,
and Christ our Lord, by heaven adored,
is mighty now to save. Scripture: 1 John 3:5 Languages: English Tune Title: KINGSFOLD

O gratefully sing his power and his love;
our shield and defender, the Ancient of Days,
pavilioned in splendour and girded with praise.
2 O tell of his might, O sing of his grace,
whose robe is the light, whose canopy space;
his chariots of wrath the deep thunder clouds form,
and dark is his path on the wings of the storm.
*3 The earth with its store of wonders untold,
Almighty, thy power hath founded of old;
hath stablished it fast by a changeless decree,
and round it hath cast, like a mantle, the sea.
4 Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the light;
it streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
and sweetly distils in the dew and the rain.
5 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
in thee do we trust, nor find thee to fail;
thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end,
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend.
6 O measureless might, ineffable love,
while angels delight to hymn thee above,
thy humbler creation, though feeble their lays,
with true adoration shall sing to thy praise. Topics: Proper 24 Year B; Creation Scripture: Amos 9:6 Languages: English Tune Title: HANOVER
O worship the King, all glorious above
