O Holy City, Seen of John
Author: Walter Russell Bowie Hymnal: Voices United #709 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Topics: Easter 5 Year C Lyrics: 1 O holy city, seen of John,
where Christ, the Lamb, doth reign,
within whose foursquare walls shall come
no night, nor need, nor pain,
and where the tears are wiped from eyes
that shall not weep again!
2 Hark, now from men whose lives are held
more cheap than merchandise,
from women struggling sore for bread,
from little children's cries,
there swells the sobbing human plaint
that bids thy walls arise.
3 O shame to us who rest content
while lust and greed for gain
in street and shop and tenement
wring gold from human pain,
and bitter lips in blind despair cry,
"Christ hath died in vain!"
4 Give us, O God, the strength to build
the city that hath stood
too long a dream, whose laws are love,
whose ways is brotherhood,
and where the sun that shineth is
God's grace for human good.
5 Already in the mind of God
that city riseth fair.
Lo, how its splendour challenges
the souls that greatly dare,
yea, bids us seize the whole of life
and build its glory there! Languages: English Tune Title: MORNING SONG

How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #297 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Year A Easter 5 Lyrics: 1 How sweet the name ofJesus sounds
in a believer's ear!
It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds,
and drives away our fear.
2 It makes the wounded spirit whole,
and calms the troubled breast;
'tis manna to the hungry soul,
and to the weary, rest.
3 Dear name! the rock on which I build,
my shield and hiding-place,
my never-failing treas'ry filled
with boundless stores of grace.
4 Jesus! my shepherd, brother, friend,
my prophet, priest, and king,
my Lord, my life, my way, my end,
accept the praise I bring.
5 Weak is the effort of my heart,
and cold my warmest thought;
but when I see thee as thou art,
I'll praise thee as I ought.
6 Till then I would thy love proclaim
with ev'ry fleeting breath;
and may the music of thy name
refresh my soul in death. Scripture: 1 John 3:2 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. PETER

He lives, my hungry soul to feed;
He lives, to help in time of need.

He lives, and I shall conquer death;
He lives, my mansion to prepare;
He lives, to bring me safely there.
4 He lives, all glory to his name;
He lives, my Savior, still the same;
What joy the blest assurance gives;
I know that my Redeemer lives! Scripture: Job 19:25 Languages: English Tune Title: DUKE STREET

Angel-voices ever singing
Author: Francis Pott, 1832-1909 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #37 (2000) Meter: 8.5.8.5.8.4.3 Topics: Year C Easter 5 Lyrics: 1 Angel-voices ever singing
round thy throne of light,
angel-harps for ever ringing,
rest not day nor night;
thousands only live to bless thee,
and confess thee Lord of might.
2 Thou who art beyond the farthest
mortal eye can see,
can it be that thou regardest
our poor hymnody?
Yes, we know that thou art near us,
and wilt hear us constantly.
3 Yea, we know that thou rejoicest
o'er each work of thine;
thou didst ears and hands and voices
for thy praise design;
craftsman's art and music's measure
for thy pleasure all combine.
4 In thy house, great God, we offer
of thine own to thee;
and for thine acceptance proffer
all unworthily,
hearts and minds and hands and voices
in our choicest psalmody.
5 Honour, glory, might and merit
thine shall ever be,
Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
blessèd Trinity.
Of the best that thou hast given
earth and heaven render thee.

Christ Is Made the Sure Foundation

Christ the head and cornerstone,
chosen of the Lord, and precious,
binding all the church in one;
holy Zion's help for ever,
and its confidence alone.
2 To this temple where we call you,
come, O Lord of Hosts, today;
with your faithful loving-kindness
hear your servants as they pray,
and your fullest benediction
shed within its walls alway.
3 Here bestow on all your servants
what they ask of you to gain;
what they gain from you for ever
with the blessèd to retain,
and hereafter in your glory
evermore with you to reign.
4 Laud and honour to the Father,
laud and honour to the Son,
laud and honour to the Spirit,
ever three and ever one,
one in mighty, and one in glory,
while unending ages run. Languages: English Tune Title: WESTMINSTER ABBEY

The Church's One Foundation
Author: Samuel John Stone Hymnal: Voices United #332 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Easter 5 Year A Lyrics: 1 The Church's one foundation
is Jesus Christ her Lord;
she is his new creation
by water and the word:
from heaven he came and sought her
to be his holy bride;
with his own blood he bought her,
and for her life he died.
2 Elect from every nation,
yet one o'er all the earth,
her charter of salvation,
one Lord, one faith, one birth;
one holy name she blesses,
partakes one holy food,
and to one hope she presses,
with every grace endued.
3 'Mid toil and tribulation,
and tumult of her war
she waits the consummation
of peace for evermore;
till with the vision glorious
her longing eyes are blessed,
and the great Church victorious
shall be the Church at rest.
4 Yet she on earth hath union
with God, the Three in one,
and mystic sweet communion
with those whose rest is won.
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we
like them, the meek and lowly,
on high may dwell with thee. Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA
