When Christ's Appearing Was Made Known

Author: Caelius Sedulius (5th cent.?); John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 9 hymnals Hymnal Title: Common Praise (1998) Lyrics: 1 When Christ’s appearing was made known, King Herod trembled for his throne; but he who offers heavenly birth sought not the kingdom 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 heavenly Lamb in meekness stood, that he, to whom no sin was known, might cleanse his people from their own. 4 And O what a miracle divine, when water reddened into wine! He spake the word, and forth it flowed in streams that nature ne’er bestowed. 5 All glory, Jesus, be to thee for this thy glad Epiphany: whom with the Father we adore and Holy Ghost forevermore.

The Lamb's High Banquet Called to Share

Author: John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #214 (1998) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: Common Praise (1998) Lyrics: 1 The Lamb's high banquet called to share, arrayed in garments white and fair, the Red Sea past, we long to 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 Protected in the paschal night from the destroying angel's might, in triumph went the ransomed free from Pharaoh's cruel tyranny. 4 Now Christ our passover is slain, the Lamb of God without a stain; his flesh, the true unleavened bread, is freely offered in our stead. 5 O all-sufficient Sacrifice, beneath thee hell defeated lies; thy captive people are set free, and endless life restored in thee. 6 We hymn thee rising from the grave, from death returning, strong to save; thine own right hand the tyrant chains, and paradise for us regains. 7 All praise be thine, O risen Lord, from death to endless life restored; all praise to God the Father be and Holy Ghost eternally. Topics: Easter (season); Easter Vigil ; Eucharist; Exodus Scripture: Exodus 12:1-14 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. VENANTIUS

Paul Gibson

b. 1932 Person Name: Paul Gibson (1932-) Hymnal Title: Common Praise (1998) Paraphraser of "We Bless You, God of Israel" in Common Praise (1998)

Sedulius

400 - 499 Person Name: Caelius Sedulius (5th cent.?) Hymnal Title: Common Praise (1998) Author of "When Christ's Appearing Was Made Known" in Common Praise (1998) Sedulius, Coelius. The known facts concerning this poet, as contained in his two letters to Macedonius, are, that in early life, he devoted himself to heathen literature; that comparatively late in life he was converted to Christianity; and that amongst his friends were Gallieanus and Perpetua. The place of his birth is generally believed to have been Rome; and the date when he flourished 450. For this date the evidence is, that he referred to the Commentaries of Jerome, who died 420; is praised by Cassiodorus, who d. 575, and by Gelasius, who was pope from 492 to 496. His works were collected, after his death, by Asterius, who was consul in 494. They are (1) Carmen Paschale, a poem which treats of the whole Gospel story; (2) Opus Paschale, a prose rendering of the former; (3) Elegia, a poem, of 110 lines, on the same subject as the Carmen; (4) Veteris et Novi Testamenti Collatio; and (5) the hymn, "A solis ortus cardine". Areval(1794) quotes 16 manuscripts of Sedulius's work, ranging in date from the 7th to the 16th century. The best edition of his Opera is that by Dr. J. Huemer, pulished. at Vienna in 1885. Areval's text is printed in Migne's Patrology: Series Latina vol. xix. This Sedulius must not be confounded with the Irish, or with the Scottish Sedulius, as is sometimes done. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907)

Small Church Music

Editors: Sedulius Description: The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid 1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano with organ versions. All recordings are in MP3 format. Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per month. The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse. Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) (see http://scm-audacity.weebly.com for more information) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo and pitch to suit their local needs. Copyright notice: Rev. Clyde McLennan, performer in this collection, has assigned his performer rights in this collection to Hymnary.org. Non-commercial use of these recordings is permitted.
