The Light of Bethlehem
Author: John B. Tabb, 1845-1909 Hymnal: CYBER #3793 Person Name: John B. Tabb, 1845-1909 First Line: 'Tis Christmas night, the pure snow a flock unnumbered lies Lyrics: 1. ’Tis Christmas night, the pure snow a flock unnumbered lies;
The old Judean flocks aglow keep watch within the skies
An icy stillness closer holds the pulses of the breathless night,
And all the Christmas night, the angel stars shine bright
For Bethlehem’s light, for Bethlehem’s light.
2. A mystery deeper still folds the wondering hosts of light,
Till, lo, with holy reverence pale, that dims each diadem,
The lordliest earthward bending, hail the living light of Bethlehem,
Glad Bethlehem’s living light, the holy Christmas light,
Glad Bethlehem’s light, the living light. Languages: English Tune Title: ['Tis Christmas night, the pure snow a flock unnumbered lies]
The Light of Bethlehem

May ye beautifully
rime your evetime song, ye singers.

Day After Day I Sought the Lord
Author: Julius C. Hare Hymnal: CYBER #1165 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Andrew Tait Lyrics: 1. Day after day I sought the Lord,
And waited patiently;
Until He bent down from His throne,
And hearkened to my cry.
2. He drew me from the fearful pit,
And from the miry clay;
He placed my feet upon a rock,
And led me in His way.
3. He taught my soul a new-made song,
A song of holy praise,
All they who see these things, with fear
Their hopes to God shall raise.
4. Most blessèd is the man whose hope
Upon the Lord relies;
Who follows not the proud, nor those
That turn aside to lies.
5. O Lord, what wonders hast Thou wrought,
All number far above!
Thy thoughts to us-ward overflow
With mercy, grace, and love.
6. Show forth Thy mercy, gracious Lord;
O take it not away!
Thy loving kindness and Thy truth,
Let them be still my stay.
7. For countless sorrows hem me round;
And my iniquities
So hold me fast, and drag me down,
I cannot raise my eyes.
8. My hairs in number they surpass;
Hence is my heart dismayed;
Vouchsafe, O Lord, to rescue me!
O hasten to my aid.
9. Let those who seek Thee faithfully
In peace and joy abide;
Let those who love Thy grace still say,
The Lord be magnified.
10. Poor am I, and in need; yet God
Care of my soul doth take.
Thou art my help; my Savior Thou;
Lord, no long tarrying make. Languages: English Tune Title: ABERDEEN
Day After Day I Sought the Lord
Isles of the Deep, Rejoice!
Author: Edward Denny Hymnal: CYBER #3060 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Andrew Tait First Line: Isles of the deep, rejoice! rejoice Lyrics: 1. Isles of the deep, rejoice! rejoice!
Ye ransomed nations, sing
The praises of your Lord and God,
The triumphs of your King.
2. He comes, and at His mighty word,
The clouds are fleeting past,
And o’er the land of promise see,
The glory breaks at last.
3. There He, upon His ancient throne,
His power and grace displays,
While Salem with its echoing hills,
Send forth the voice of praise.
4. Oh, let His praises fill the earth
While all the blest above,
In strains of loftier triumph still,
Speak only of His love.
5. Sing, ye redeemed! Before the throne,
Ye white-robed myriads fall;
Sing—for the Lord of glory reigns,
The Christ—the heir of all. Languages: English Tune Title: ABERDEEN

Jesus, the Rising Lord of All
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CYBER #3423 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Andrew Tait Lyrics: 1. Jesus, the rising Lord of all,
His love to man commends,
Poor worms He blushes not to call
His brethren and His friends.

In His distress, and fled,
To these He sends the joyful word,
When risen from the dead.

My dearest brethren tell,
Their Advocate to Heav’n I go,
To rescue them from hell.
4. “Lo! to My father I ascend!
Your Father now is He,
My God, and yours, whoe’er depend
For endless life on Me.
5. “Henceforth I ever live above
For you to intercede,
The merit of My dying love,
For all mankind to plead.
6. Sinners, I rose again to show
Your sins are all forgiv’n,
And mount above the skies, that you
May follow Me to Heav’n. Languages: English Tune Title: ABERDEEN
Jesus, the Rising Lord of All
No Strength of Nature Can Suffice
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: CYBER #4591 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Andrew Tait Lyrics: 1. No strength of nature can suffice
To serve the Lord aright;
And what she has, she misapplies,
For want of clearer light.
2. How long beneath the Law I lay
In bondage and distress!
I toiled the precept to obey,
But toiled without success.
3. Then to abstain from outward sin
Was more than I could do;
Now, if I feel its power within,
I feel I hate it too.
4. Then all my servile works were done
A righteousness to raise;
Now, freely chosen in the Son,
I freely choose His ways.
5. What shall I do was then the word,
That I may worthier grow?
What shall I render to the Lord?
Is my inquiry now.
6. To see the Law by Christ fulfilled,
And hear His pardoning voice;
Changes a slave into a child,
And duty into choice. Languages: English Tune Title: ABERDEEN
No Strength of Nature Can Suffice
Our God of Love, Who Reigns Above
Author: Samuel J. Stone Hymnal: CYBER #4898 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Andrew Tait Lyrics: 1. Our God of love, who reigns above,
Comes down to us below;
’Tis sweet to tell He loves so well,
And ’tis enough to know.
2. So deep, so high—like air and sky,
Beyond us, yet around;
He whom our mind can never find
Can in our heart be found.
3. Lord God, so far, past sun and star,
Yet close to all our ways!
In love so near, be pleased to hear
Thy little children’s praise.
4. O may that sign that we are Thine—
Our Father, Savior, friend—
Which sealed our brow, be on us now,
And with us to the end.
5. Through all our way, and every day
Believed, beloved, adored;
Be this our grace, to see Thy face
In Jesus Christ our Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: ABERDEEN
Our God of Love, Who Reigns Above
O Lord, 'Tis Matter of High Praise
Author: Benjamin Keach Hymnal: CYBER #5157 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Andrew Tait Lyrics: 1. O Lord, ’tis matter of high praise,
Thy Word on us doth shine,
But happy they who feel its rays,
And glorious power divine.
2. O let poor sinners feel their sin
Prick them, as with a sword;
And purge out all that filth within;
So will we praise Thy Word.
3. Enlightened souls have cause to sing,
Who wounded were by Thee;
True cause of joy to such doth spring;
For they, Lord, healèd be.
4. And now in robes most richly decked,
They to the King are brought;
Surpassing angels, for have they
A robe so richly wrought.
5. We therefore throw our crowns below
Thy high and glorious throne;
And must all say, both night and day,
Thou worthy art alone,
6. All glory, power, and praise to have,
By us forevermore;
Thus let us sing unto our King,
And Him in heart adore. Languages: English Tune Title: ABERDEEN
O Lord, 'Tis Matter of High Praise
So Lowly Doth the Savior Ride
Author: Almer T. Pennewell, 1876-? Hymnal: CYBER #6185 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Andrew Tait Lyrics: 1. So lowly doth the Savior ride
A paltry borrowed beast,
Nor pomp, nor show, nor lofty pride,
Nor boast above the least.
2. His scepter is His kindliness,
His grandeur is His grace,
His royalty is holiness,
And love is in His face.
3. ’Tis thus the great Messiah came
To break the tyrants’ will,
To heal the people of their shame,
And nobleness instill.
4. Ride on, O King, ride on Your way,
While men of low degree
Exalt and usher in the day
Of peace we long to see. Languages: English Tune Title: ABERDEEN
So Lowly Doth the Savior Ride
To Thine Almighty Arm We Owe
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: CYBER #6940 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Andrew Tait Lyrics: 1. To Thine almighty arm we owe
The triumphs of the day;
Thy terrors, Lord, confound the foe,
And melt their strength away.
2. ’Tis by Thine aid our troops prevail,
And break united powers,
Or burn their boasted fleets, or scale
The proudest of their towers.
3. How we have chased them through the field,
And trod them to the ground,
While Thy salvation was our shield,
But they no shelter found!
4. In vain to idol saints they cry,
And perish in their blood;
When is a rock so great, so high
So powerful as our God?
5. The Rock of Israel ever lives,
His name be ever blessed;
’Tis His own arm the victory gives,
And gives His people rest.
6. On kings that reign as David did,
He pours His blessings down;
Secures their honors to their seed,
And well supports the crown. Languages: English Tune Title: ABERDEEN
To Thine Almighty Arm We Owe
