Brightest And Best Of The Sons Of The Morning

Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #377 (1930) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: Processionals and Recessionals 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 dew-drops are shining; Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall: Angels adore Him in slumber reclining, Maker and Monarch and Savior of all! 3 Shall we not yield Him, in costly devotion, Odors of Edom and off'rings divine? Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest and 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. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MORNING STAR

Light Of The Gentile Nations

Author: Catherine Winkworth; J. Franck Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #378 (1930) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Processionals and Recessionals Epiphany Lyrics: 1 Light of the Gentile nations, Thy people's joy and love! Drawn by Thy Spirit hither, We gladly come to prove Thy presence in Thy temple And wait with earnest mind, As Simeon once had waited His Savior God to find. 2 Yea, Lord, Thy servants meet Thee, E'en now, in ev'ry place Where Thy true Word hath promised That they should see Thy face. Thou yet wilt gladly grant us, Who gather round Thee here, In faith's strong arms to bear Thee, As did that aged seer. 3 Be Thou our joy, our brightness, That shines 'mid pain and loss, Our sun in times of terror, The glory round our cross; A glow in sinking spirits, A sunbeam in distress; Physician, friend in sickness; In death, our happiness. 4 O let us, Lord, be faithful Like Simeon to the end, So that his dying anthem May from our hearts ascend: O Lord, now let Thy servant Depart in peace, I pray, Since I have seen my Savior And have beheld His day. 5 My Savior, I behold Thee Now with the eye of faith; No foe of Thee can rob me, Though bitter words he saith. Within Thy heart abiding, As Thou dost dwell in me, No pain, no death has terrors To part my soul from Thee. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MAGDALENA

In the morning hours He seeks you, When the dew is on the grass; Serve Him then with young endeavor, Ere the flush of youth shall pass. 2 Thro' the forenoon of their lifetime, Ev'ry day and ev'ry year, In His Church the Lord is calling, Calling those that will not hear. Noon and afternoon are passing, And the shadows grow apace, While so many still are standing Idle in the market place. 3 Swift the twilight is advancing, Bringing the eleventh hour; One more call, O men and women, Serve Him with your waning pow'r! Then at last the quiet evening And the sunset in the West, When the Master of the vineyard Calls the workers home to rest. Languages: English Tune Title: DEARHURST

Who best can drink his cup of woe, Triumphant over pain, Who patient bears his cross below, He follows in His train. 2 The martyr first, whose eagle eye Could pierce beyond the grave, Who saw his Master in the sky, And called on Him to save; Like Him, with pardon on His tongue, In midst of mortal pain, He prayed for them that did the wrong;-- Who follows in his train? 3 A glorious band, the chosen few, On whom the Spirit came, Twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew, And mocked the cross and flame. They climbed the steep ascent of heav'n Thro' peril, toil, and pain! O God! to us may grace be giv'n To follow in their train! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS NEW
