O God! Ere Heav'n And Earth Were Planned

Author: Mary O. Page Hymnal: CYBER #12774 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: O God! ere Heav’n and earth were planned Lyrics: 1 O God! ere Heav’n and earth were planned, Adoring silence worshipped Thee; Now vast the universe doth stand, The temple of Thy majesty. 2 Its walls are wrought of sapphire bright; Its countless spires are starry flame: Suns on the boundless ether write The sovereign beauty of Thy name. 3 An earthly temple, by Thy grace, This day we dedicate to Thee; Deign to make here Thy dwelling place O Thou that fill’st immensity. 4 Fold us beneath Thy sheltering wings, As here we worship at Thy shrine; Ours be the peace Thy presence brings, The glory and the praise be Thine.

Thus The Eternal Father Spake

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: CYBER #12813 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Thus the eternal Father spake To Christ the Son: “Ascend and sit At My right hand, till I shall make Thy foes submissive at Thy feet. 2 "From Zion shall Thy word proceed; Thy word, the scepter in Thy hand, Shall make the hearts of rebels bleed, And bow their wills to Thy command. 3 "That day shall show Thy power is great, When saints shall flock with willing minds, And sinners crowd the temple gate, Where holiness in beauty shines." 4 O blessed power! O glorious day! What a large victory shall ensue! And converts, who Thy grace obey, Exceed the drops of morning dew. Tune Title: ST. CRISPIN

Thy Promise, Lord, Is Perfect Peace

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: CYBER #12854 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Thy promise, Lord, is perfect peace, And yet my trials still increase; Till fears at times my soul assail, That Satan’s rage must yet prevail. 2 Then, Savior, then I fly to Thee, And in Thy grace my refuge see; Thou heard’st me from Thy holy hill, And Thou wilt hear and help me still. 3 Beneath Thy wings secure I sleep; What foe can harm while Thou dost keep? I wake, and find Thee at my side, My omnipresent guard and guide! 4 Oh why should earth or hell distress, With God so strong, so nigh to bless? From Him alone salvation flows; On Him alone, my soul, repose. Languages: English Tune Title: KANSAS CITY

'Tis Christmas Eve

Author: Mary P. Beegle Hymnal: CYBER #12872 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: ’Tis Christmas eve! The setting sun Lyrics: 1 ’Tis Christmas eve! The setting sun Makes shadows lengthen on the plain; The stars come twinkling one by one, And bring the joyous night again. 2 Unlike Judea’s silent plains When wearied nature calmly slept, While shepherds on the hills and glens Their long and solemn vigils kept. 3 And where along the deep blue arch A glory shone, and then a throng, From where the sparkling planets march Came flying down with joyous song. 4 Unlike the time the wicked king Sought where the infant Savior lay, When God forbade his base design, And bore the precious child away. 5 We joy to know that time is past, The blessèd Savior’s natal day, That He’s ascended to His home, And for His saints prepared the way. 6 Where angels tune their harps of gold And saints a loftier song shall raise, While waiting myriads join the strain In an eternal song of praise.

Vain Man, On Foolish Pleasures Bent

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: CYBER #12927 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Vain man on foolish pleasures bent Lyrics: 1 Vain man on foolish pleasures bent, Prepares for his own punishment; What pains, what loathsome maladies, From luxury and lust arise! 2 The drunkard feels his vitals waste, Yet drowns his health to please his taste; Till all his active powers are lost, And fainting life draws near the dust. 3 The glutton groans, and loathes to eat, His soul abhors delicious meat; Nature, with heavy loads oppressed, Would yield to death to be released. 4 Then how the frighted sinners fly, To God for help with earnest cry! He hears their groans, prolongs their breath, And saves them from approaching death. 5 No medicines could effect the cure So quick, so easy, or so sure: The deadly sentence God repeals, He sends His sovereign Word and heals. 6 O may the sons of men record The wondrous goodness of the Lord! And let their thankful offerings prove How they adore their maker’s love. Languages: English Tune Title: QUEEN'S CROSS

We Praise Thee, God, For Harvests Earned

Author: John C. Adams Hymnal: CYBER #12988 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 We praise Thee, God, for harvests earned, The fruits of labor garnered in; But praise Thee more for soil unturned From which the yield is yet to win! 2 We praise Thee for the harbor’s lee, And moorings safe in waters still; But more for leagues of open sea, Where favoring gales our canvas fill. 3 We praise Thee for the conflicts won, For captured strongholds of the foe; But more for fields whereon the sun Lights us when we to battle go. 4 We praise Thee for life’s gathered gains, And blessings in our cup that brim; But more for pledge of what remains Past the horizon’s utmost rim!

We Pray For Those Who Do Not Pray

Author: C. Newman Hall Hymnal: CYBER #12990 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: We pray for those who do not pray! Lyrics: 1 We pray for those who do not pray! Who waste, O Lord, salvation’s day; For those we love who love not Thee— Our grief, their danger, pitying see. 2 Those for whom many tears are shed, And blessings breathed upon their head; The children of Thy people save, From godless life and hopeless grave. 3 Hear fathers, mothers, as they pray For sons, for daughters far away— Brother for brother, friend for friend— Hear all our prayers that upwards blend. 4 We pray for those who long have heard, But still neglect Thy gracious Word; Soften the hearts obdurate made By calls unheeded, vows delayed. 5 Release the drunkard from his chain, Save those beguiled by pleasure vain, Set free the slaves of lust, and bring Back to their home the wandering. 6 The hopeless cheer; guide those who doubt; Restore the lost; cast no one out; For all that are far off we pray, Since we were once far off as they.

Long Years Ago, On Christmas Morn

Author: Arthur F. M.
