We Three Kings of Orient Are

bearing gifts we traverse afar

following yonder star.

star with royal beauty bright,
westward leading, still proceeding,
guide us to thy perfect light.

gold I bring to crown him again
King forever, ceasing never,
over us all to reign.
3 Frankincense to offer have I,
incense owns a Deity nigh;
prayer and praising, gladly raising,
worshiping God on high.
4 Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume
breathes a life of gathering gloom,
sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,
sealed in the stone-cold tomb.
5 Glorious now behold him arise,
Christ and God and sacrifice:
alleluia, alleluia,
sounds through the earth and skies. (Refrain) Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Languages: English Tune Title: KINGS OF ORIENT

What Was Your Vow and Vision
Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #177 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: God Known in Jesus Christ Epiphany Lyrics: 1 What was your vow and vision,
revealed and recognized,
Christ, when you came to Jordan
and asked to be baptized?
Was there a sudden splendor
of prophets, priests and kings,
a wind that stirred the waters,
a blur of mighty wings?
2 Was this God's call, the crowning
of all you had become:
"Go, show and tell my coming,
my own, my chosen one?"
Did scripture join with scripture,
revealing in surprise
the triumph of a servant
rejected and despised?
3 We meet you at the water
and ponder why and how,
in hope that we may follow
where God is going now,
anointed by your Spirit,
reborn, and energized,
through deed and word proclaiming:
"In Christ we are baptized!"
Scripture: Matthew 3:13-17 Languages: English Tune Title: COMPLAINER

Here Hangs a Man Discarded
Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #203 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: God Known in Jesus Christ Suffering and Death Lyrics: 1 Here hangs a man discarded,
a scarecrow hoisted high,
a nonsense pointing nowhere
to all who hurry by.
2 Can such a clown of sorrows
still bring a useful word
when faith and love seem phantoms
and every hope absurd?
3 Yet here is help and comfort
for lives by comfort bound,
when drums of dazzling progress
give strangely hollow sound:
4 Life, emptied of all meaning,
drained out in bleak distress,
can share in broken silence
our deepest emptiness;
5 And love that freely entered
the pit of life's despair,
can name our hidden darkness
and suffer with us there.
6 Christ, in our darkness risen,
help all who long for light
to hold the hand of promise,
till faith receives its sight. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:18-31 Languages: English

Come, Ye Faithful, Raise the Strain
Author: John of Damascus, 8th century; John Mason Neale Hymnal: Chalice Hymnal #215 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: God Known in Jesus Christ Resurrection and Exaltation Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness;
God hath brought his Israel
into joy from sadness:
loosed from Pharaoh's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters,
led them with unmoistened foot
through the Red Sea waters.
2 'Tis the spring of souls today:
Christ hath burst his prison,
and from three days' sleep in death
as a sun hath risen;
all the winter of our sins,
long and dark, is flying
from his light, to whom we give
laud and praise undying.
3 Now the brightest season dawns
with the day of splendor,
with the royal feast of feasts,
comes its joy to render;
comes to glad Jerusalem,
who with true affection
welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. KEVIN

glorious Prince of life!

through thy deathless love.

to thy home above. (Refrain) Languages: English Tune Title: MACCABEUS
