The Head that once was crown'd with thorns
O Very God of Very God
Author: John Mason Neale Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 49 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O very God of very God,
And very Light of Light,
Whose feet this earth's dark valley trod,
That so it might be bright!
2 Our hopes are weak, our fears are strong,
Thick darkness binds our eyes;
Cold is the night, and O we long
For Thee, our Sun, to rise!
3 And even now, though dull and gray,
The east is brightening fast,
And kindling to the perfect day
That never shall be past.
4 O guide us till our path be done,
And we have reached the shore
Where Thou, our everlasting Sun,
Art shining evermore!
5 We wait in faith, and turn our face
To where the daylight springs,
Till Thou shalt come our gloom to chase,
With healing on Thy wings.
Amen.

The Lord will come and not be slow
Author: John Milton (1608-1674) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 98 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Lord will come and not be slow,
His footsteps cannot err;
Before Him righteousness shall go,
His royal harbinger.
2 Truth from the earth, like to a flower,
Shall bud and blossom then;
And justice, from her heavenly bower,
Look down on mortal men.
3 Rise, God, judge Thou the earth in might,
This wicked earth redress;
For Thou art He who shall by right
The nations all possess.
4 For great Thou art, and wonders great
By Thy strong hand are done:
Thou in Thy everlasting seat
Remainest God alone.

O Thou whose feet have climbed life's hill
Behold the glories of the Lamb
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 275 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Behold the glories of the Lamb
amidst his Father’s throne;
prepare new honours for his name,
and songs before unknown.
2 Lo! elders worship at his feet;
the church adores around,
with vials full of odours rich,
and harps of sweetest sound.
3 These odours are the pray’rs of saints,
these sounds the hymns they raise;
God bends his ear to their requests,
he loves to hear their praise.
4 Who shall the Father’s record search,
and hidden things reveal?
Behold the Son that record takes,
and opens ev’ry seal.
5 Hark how th’ adoring hosts above
with songs surround the throne!
ten thousand thousand are their tongues;
but all their hearts are one.
6 Worthy the Lamb that dy'd, they cry,
to be exalted thus;
Worthy the Lamb, let us reply,
for he was slain for us.
7 To him be pow’r divine ascrib'd,
and endless blessings paid;
salvation, glory, joy, remain
for ever on his head!
8 Thou hast redeem'd us with thy blood,
and set the pris’ners free;
thou mad’st us kings and priests to God,
and we shall reign with thee.
9 From ev’ry kindred, ev’ry tongue,
thou brought’st thy chosen race;
and distant lands and isles have shar'd
the riches of thy grace.
10 Let all that dwell above the sky,
or on the earth below,
with fields, and floods, and ocean’s shores,
to thee their homage show.
11 To Him who sits upon the throne,
the God whom we adore,
and to the Lamb that once was slain,
be glory evermore.

In Him no South or North;
But one great fellowship of Love
Throughout the whole wide earth.

Their high communion find;
His service is the golden cord
Close-binding all mankind.

Whate'er your race may be:
Who serves my Father as a son
Is surely kin to Me.

In Him meet South and North;
All Christly souls are one in Him
Throughout the whole wide earth. Topics: Choral Section Church of Christ Used With Tune: NOTTINGHAM (ST. MAGNUS)
