This is the day of light
Author: John Ellerton Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 278 hymnals Matching Instances: 48 Lyrics:
This is the day of light:
Let there be light today;
O Day-spring, rise upon our night,
And chase its gloom away.
This is the day of rest:
Our failing strength renew;
On weary brain and troubled breast
Shed thou thy freshening dew.
This is the day of peace:
Thy peace our spirits fill;
Bid thou the blasts of discord cease,
The waves of strife be still.
This is the day of prayer:
Let earth to heaven draw near;
Lift up our hearts to seek thee there,
Come down to meet us here.
This is the first of days:
Send forth thy quickening breath,
And wake dead souls to love and praise,
O Vanquisher of death!
Amen.

Your glory fills the night;
Your face and garments, like the sun,
Shine with unborrowed light.

Your beauty to behold,
Where Moses and Elijah stand,
Your messengers of old.

Promise of things to be!
We hail your body glorified,
And our redemption see.
4 Before we taste of death,
We see your kingdom come;
We long to hold the vision bright,
And make this hill our home.
5 'Tis good, Lord, to be here!
Yet we may not remain;
But since you bid us leave the mount,
Come with us to the plain. Used With Tune: SWABIA

Revive Thy work, O Lord
Author: Albert Midlane Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 213 hymnals Matching Instances: 10 Lyrics:
Revive thy work, O Lord,
Thy mighty arm make bare;
Speak with the voice that wakes the dead
And make thy people hear.
Revive thy work, O Lord,
Disturb this sleep of death;
Quicken the smouldering embers now
By thine almighty breath.
Revive thy work, O Lord,
Create soul thirst for thee;
And hungering for the Bread of life,
O may our spirits be!

Revive thy work, O Lord,
Exalt thy precious Name;
And, by the Holy Ghost, our love
For thee and thine inflame.
Revive thy work, O Lord,
And give refreshing showers;
The glory shall be all thine own,
The blessing, Lord, be ours.
Amen.

Praise We the Lord This Day
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 51 hymnals Matching Instances: 10 Lyrics: 1 Praise we the Lord this day,
This day so long foretold,
Whose promise shone with cheering ray
On waiting saints of old.
2 The prophet gave the sign
For faithful folk to read:
A virgin, born of David's line,
Shall bear the promised seed.
3 Ask not how this should be,
But worship and adore
Like her whom God's own majesty
Came down to shadow o'er.
4 She meekly bowed her head
To hear the gracious word:
Hail, Mary, pure and lowly maid,
The favored of the Lord.
5 How blest shall be her name
In all the Church on earth!
Through her that wondrous myst'ry came,
The incarnate Savior's birth.
6 Praise Christ, the Virgin's Son,
Whom earth and heav'n adore,
With Father, Spirit, Three in One
Both now and evermore. Topics: Annunciation of the Lord; Advent IV B Scripture: Matthew 1:23 Used With Tune: SWABIA Text Sources: Hymns for Festivals and Saints' Days, 1846

I Name Thy Hallowed Name
Author: Louis F. Benson Appears in 9 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 Lyrics: 1 I name Thy hallowed name,
I bring Thee a new day;
Lord, keep my life from sin and shame,
And teach me how to pray.
2 Thy kingdom come to me,
And build within my heart
A shrine for me, a throne for Thee,
A temple set apart.
3 Thy will be done by me
In little things, close by,
That so my home on earth may be
More like Thy heaven on high.
4 Give me my bread today,
Enough to keep me strong,
Enough to share; and help me pray
For those who do me wrong.
5 If any tempt me, lead
To purer air above;
Thy power is gentle in our need,
Thy glory is Thy love.

Give, thou, thy Youth to God
Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-89 Appears in 21 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 Give, thou, thy youth to God,
With all its budding love;
Send up thy op'ning heart to Him,
Fix it on One above.

Choose, thou, the narrow way;
The gate is strait, the road is rough,
But it will end in day.

In things or great or small,
So shall He ever take thy side,
And bear thee safe thro' all.

Be brave for truth and right,
Fear God alone, and ever walk
As in His holy sight. Topics: Childhood and Youth Youth Used With Tune: SWABIA
