As With Gladness Men of Old

Author: William Chatterton Dix Hymnal: Voices United #81 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Baptism of Jesus Year A Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old did the guiding star behold, as with joy they hailed its light, leading onward, beaming bright, so, most gracious Lord, may we evermore your splendour see. 2 As with joyful steps they sped, to that lowly manger bed, there to bend the knee before Christ, whom heaven and earth adore; so may we with eager pace ever seek your throne of grace. 3 As they offered gifts most rare at that manger rude and bare, so may we with holy joy, pure and free from sin's alloy, all our costliest treasures bring, Christ, to you, our heavenly King. 4 Holy Jesus, every day keep us in the narrow way; and, when earthly things are past, bring our ransomed lives at last where they need no star to guide, where no clouds your glory hide. 5 In the heavenly country bright none shall need created light; you its light, its joy, its crown, you its sun which goes not down; there forever may we sing hallelujah to our King.

Sing of God Made Manifest

Author: Carl P. Daw Jr. Hymnal: Glory to God #156 (2013) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Christian Year Baptism of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Sing of God made manifest in a child robust and blest, to whose home in Bethlehem where a star had guided them, magi came and gifts unbound, signs mysterious and profound: myrrh and frankincense and gold grave and God and king foretold. 2 Sing of God made manifest when at Jordan John confessed, “I should be baptized by you, but your bidding I will do.” Then from heaven a double sign – dove-like Spirit, voice divine – hailed the true Anointed One: “This is my beloved Son.” 3 Sing of God made manifest when Christ came as wedding guest and at Cana gave a sign, turning water into wine; further still was love revealed as he taught, forgave, and healed, bringing light and life to all who would listen to God’s call. 4 Sing of God made manifest on the cloud-capped mountain’s crest, where the law and prophets waned so that Christ alone remained: glimpse of glory, pledge of grace, given as Jesus set his face towards the waiting cross and grave, sign of hope that God would save.

I danced for the fishermen, for James and John. They came with me and the dance went on. [Refrain] 3 I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame. The holy people said it was a shame. They whipped and they stripped and they hung me high, and left me there on a cross to die. [Refrain] 4 I danced on a Friday when the sky turned black. It's hard to dance with the devil on your back. They buried my body and they thought I'd gone, but I am the dance and I still go on. [Refrain] 5 They cut me down and I leapt up high. I am the life that will never, never die. I'll live in you if you'll live in me, I am the Lord of the Dance, said he. [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 11:17 Languages: English Tune Title: LORD OF THE DANCE
