Good news from heaven the angels bring

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #23 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lyrics: 1 Good news from heaven the angels bring, Glad tidings to the earth they sing: To us this day a Child is given, To crown us with the joy of heaven. 2 This is the Christ, our God and Lord, Who in all need shall aid afford; He will Himself our Saviour be And from our sins will set us free. 3 To us that blessedness He brings, Which from the Father's bounty springs: That in the heavenly realm we may With Him enjoy eternal day. 4 All hail, Thou noble Guest, this morn, Whose love did not the sinner scorn: In my distress Thou com'st to me, What thanks shall I return to Thee. 5 Were earth a thousand times as fair, Beset with gold and jewels rare, She yet were far too poor to be A narrow cradle, Lord, for Thee. 6 Ah, dearest Jesus, holy Child, Make Thee a bed, soft, undefiled, Within my heart, that it may be A quiet chamber kept for Thee. 7 Praise God upon His heavenly throne, Who gave to us His only Son; For this His hosts, on joyful wing, A blest New Year of mercy sing.

O little town of Bethlehem

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #26 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lyrics: 1 O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie; Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by; Yet in thy darkness shineth The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee to-night. 2 For Christ is born of Mary, And gathered all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering love. O morning stars, together Proclaim the holy birth! And praises sing to God our King, And peace to men on earth. 3 How silently, how silently, The wondrous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of His heaven. No ear may hear His coming, But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive Him still, The dear Christ enters in. 4 O holy Child of Bethlehem! Descend to us, we pray; Cast out our sin, and enter in, Be born in us to-day. We hear the Christmas angels, The great glad tidings tell: Oh, come to us; abide with us, Our Lord Immanuel!

I love to hear the story

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #27 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals First Line: I love to hear the story Lyrics: 1 I love to hear the story Which angel voices tell, How once the King of glory Came down to earth to dwell. I am both weak and sinful, But this I surely know, The Lord came down to save me, Because He loved me so. 2 I'm glad my blessed Saviour Was once a child like me, To show how pure and holy His little ones should be; And if I try to follow His footsteps here below He never will forget me, Because He loves me so. 3 To sing His love and mercy My sweetest songs I'll raise; And though I cannot see Him, I know He hears my praise; For He has kindly promised That even I may go To sing among His angels, Because He loves me so.

There is no Name so sweet on earth

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #30 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals New Year Refrain First Line: We love to sing around our King Lyrics: 1 There is no Name so sweet on earth, No Name so sweet in heaven,-- The Name before His wondrous birth To Christ the Saviour given. Chorus: We love to sing around our King, And hail Him blessed Jesus! For there's no word ear ever heard So dear, so sweet as Jesus. 2 His human Name, they did proclaim When Abram's son they sealed Him, The Name that still, by God's good will, Deliverer revealed Him. 3 And when He hung upon the tree, They wrote this Name above Him, That all might see the reason we Forever more must love Him. 4 So now, upon His Father's throne. Almighty to release us From sin and pains, in glory reigns The Prince and Saviour Jesus. 5 To Jesus every knee shall bow, And every tongue confess Him, And we unite with saints in light, To honor and to bless Him. 6 O Jesus, by that matchless Name, Thy grace shall fail us never; To-day as yesterday the same, Thou art the same for ever.

Brightest and best of the sons of the morning

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #32 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Epiphany Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, Dawn on our darkness, and lend us Thine aid; Star of the East, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. 2 Cold on His cradle the dewdrops are shining; Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall: Angels adore Him in slumber reclining, Maker, and Monarch, and Saviour of all! 3 Say, shall we yield Him, in costly devotion, Odors of Edom, and offerings divine? Gems of the mountain, and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine? 4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation; Vainly with gifts would His favor secure: Richer by far is the heart's adoration; Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor. 5 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, Dawn on our darkness, and lend us Thine aid: Star of the East, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.

Now Israel's hope in triumph ends

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #33 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Epiphany Lyrics: 1 Now Israel's hope in triumph ends, With angels' glorious song ascends A star of heavenly splendor. O'er Bethlehem it shineth bright, And people walking in its light, Shall come and homage render. Great light, Bright light, Now descendeth, Darkness endeth, Day beginneth, Light to all the world it bringeth. 2 Among us dwells in truth and grace The hidden God, who loves our race; He brought us all salvation. We now behold His majesty, The only Son's true majesty, And bow in adoration. Draw near, And hear, Every nation, Now salvation God bestoweth, And His love and mercy showeth. 3 Rejoice, my soul, and bless His Name Who to the lost and fallen came, To open heaven's portals. Rejoice that God will mercy show, The broken covenant renew With us poor sinful mortals. Now be Glory Ever given God in heaven; Peace unending Be on earth from heaven descending.

In the cross of Christ I glory

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #35 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lent Lyrics: 1 In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. 2 When the woes of life o'ertake me, Hopes deceive, and fears annoy, Never shall the cross forsake me; Lo! it glows with peace and joy. 3 When the sun of bliss is beaming Light and love upon my way, From the cross the radiance streaming Adds new lustre to the day. 4 Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure, By the cross are sanctified; Peace is there that knows no measure, Joys that through all time abide.

There is a fountain filled with blood

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #36 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lent Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain filled with blood, Drawn from Immanuel's veins; And sinners, plunged beneath that flood, Lose all their guilty stains. 2 The dying thief rejoiced to see That fountain in his day; And there may I, as vile as he, Wash all my sins away. 3 Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood Shall never lose its power, Till all the ransomed church of God Be saved to sin no more. 4 E'er since, by faith, I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply, Redeeming love has been my theme, And shall be till I die. 5 Then in a nobler, sweeter song I'll sing Thy power to save, When this poor lisping, stammering tongue Lies silent in the grave. 6 Lord, I believe Thou hast prepared, Unworthy though I be, For me a blood-bought free reward, A golden harp for me. 7 'Tis strung and tuned for endless years, And formed by power divine To sound in God the Father's ears No other name but Thine.

Memories holy, most precious and blest

Hymnal: Sunday School Book #38 (1903) Topics: The Christian Festivals Lent Lyrics: 1 Memories holy, most precious and blest, Speak to my spirit of stillness and rest; Gently me lead to Gethsemane's dale; Show me the sufferer trembling and pale, Treading forsaken a path full of thorns, Loving the world, which in turn only scorns. 2 Now I perceive Him in shadows of night, Putting the powers of darkness to flight, Crushed 'neath the load of the sin of the world, Death and damnation around Him are hurled. Thorn-crowned and scourged still the sacrificed Lamb, Lifting His brow, says: "A King yet I am." 3 Show me the cross where He patiently died, There in its shadow myself will I hide, There will I bide His victorious word, Hear him exclaim "It is finished", my Lord There will I praise for His mercy and grace; Suffering and dying He stood in my place.
