The King of Love

Author: Henry Williams Baker Hymnal: Voices United #273 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Christmas 2 Year A; Christmas 2 Year B First Line: The King of love my shepherd is Lyrics: 1 The King of love my shepherd is, whose goodness faileth never; I nothing lack if I am his, and he is mine for ever. 2 Where streams of living water flow, my ransomed soul he leadeth, and where the verdant pastures grow, with food celestial feedeth. 3 Perverse and foolish oft I strayed, but yet in love he sought me, and on his shoulder gently laid, and home rejoicing brought me. 4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill with thee, dear Lord, beside me; thy rod and staff my comfort still, thy cross before to guide me. 5 Thou spread'st a table in my sight; thy unction grace bestoweth; and O what transport of delight from thy pure chalice floweth! 6 And so through all the length of days thy goodness faileth never: Good Shepherd, may I sing thy praise within thy house for ever.

Wise men, they came to look for wisdom

Author: Christopher Idle (born 1938) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #100 (1987) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Topics: Christmas 2 The Wise Men Lyrics: 1 Wise men, they came to look for wisdom, finding one wiser than they knew; rich men, they met with one yet richer — King of the kings, they knelt to you: Jesus, our wisdom from above, wealth and redemption, life and love. 2 Pilgrims they were, from unknown countries, searching for one who knows the world; lost are their names, and strange their journeys, famed is their zeal to find the child: Jesus, in you the lost are claimed, aliens are found, and known, and named. 3 Magi, they stooped to see your splendour, led by a star to light supreme; promised Messiah, Lord eternal, glory and peace are in your name. Joy of each day, our Song by night, shine on our path your holy light. 4 Guests of their God, they opened treasures, incense and gold and solemn myrrh; welcoming one too young to question how came these gifts, and what they were: Gift beyond price of gold or gem, make among us your Bethlehem.

Alle Ting er underlige

Author: Kingo Hymnal: Salmebog for Lutherske Kristne i Amerika #152 (1919) Topics: Christmas 2 Lyrics: 1 Alle Ting er underlige, Ingen kan det granske ud, At Gud vil til Jorden stige For at fæste sig en Brud. Han har brudt sin Himmelsal, Ligger ned i Jordens Dal, Til sit eget Folk han tragter, Dog de ham kun lidet agter. 2 Himlens Ære, Liv og Naade Fører dette Barn til Jord, Salighed og evig Baade I hans Barm og Hjerte bor. O, lyksaligt er det Sted, Hvor han sætter sine Fjed! O, det Hjerte saligt bliver, Som sig til hans Bolig giver! 3 Fædrene var snart forgræmmed', Førend du, min Jesus, kom; Der du kom, da blev du fremmed, Saadan vendtes Bladet om, Dig dit eget Folk forskjød, Og slet ingen Ære bød, Neppe fik du Lov at ligge Som et Barn, der gaar at tigge. 4 Naadesolen af dit Øie Ikke før paa Jorden stak, Førend Misgunst, Had og Møie Blev din allerførste Tak. Satan, som om Lande løb, Vilde i dit Barnesvøb Dræbe dig, alt om han kunde, Før der kom dig Ord af Munde. 5 Blandt din' Egne var der ikke En af Ti, som kjendte dig, Men de fleste vilde stikke Efter dig forræderlig. Dine Tjenere de slog, Myrded, hudstrøg og forjog, Stødte, stened og bespotted, Og mod dig sig sammenrotted. 6 Du til deres Barm dig lagde, Fattig af en Jomfru fødd; Dermed du dog dem mishag'de, Haan og Spot til Tak de bød. Satan, Sygdom, Sorg og Synd Drev og lægte du med Fynd, Men din Løn blev Had og Avind, Tornekrone, Kors og Glavind. 7 Ræven i sin Lure-Hule Haver mere Sikkerhed, Ja paa Kvisten vilde Fugle, End som du paa Jorden veed. Blandt din egen Folkefærd Er saa Faa, der har dig kjær; Hedninger de dig annamme, Og gjør Jøderne tilskamme. 8 Hjerte Jesus, er din Lykke Blandt dit eget Folk saa slet, Kom du da, min Sjæles Smykke, Jeg vil afstaa al min Ret Til mig selv, og give mig, Kjære, søde Jesus dig! Mig vil jeg dig ganske give, At du min igjen vil blive! 9 Sjælen den er dog din egen, Kroppen dannede din Haand; Derfor er din Ret saa megen Baade til min Krop og Aand. Tag mig da, besid mig hel, Du min Sjæles ganske Del, I dit Kors og i din Ære Lad mig din Livegen være! Languages: Norwegian
