Brightest and best of the sons of the morning
Author: Reginald Heber (1783-1826) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #96a (2013) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: Church Year Epiphany; Epiphany; 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 Saviour of all.
3 Say, shall we yield him, in costly devotion,
odours of Edom, and offerings divine,
gems of the mountain, and pearls of the ocean,
myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine?
4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation,
vainly with gifts would his favour 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. Scripture: Psalm 34:18 Languages: English Tune Title: EPIPHANY

dwell on his love with sweetest song,
and infant voices shall proclaim
their early blessings on his name.

and prisoners leap to lose their chains;
the weary find eternal rest,
and all who suffer want are blest.

peculiar honours to our King,
angels descend with songs again,
and earth repeat the loud Amen! Languages: English Tune Title: DUKE STREET

As With Gladness Men of Old
Author: William Chatterton Dix Hymnal: Voices United #81 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: The Christian Year Epiphany; Christian Year Epiphany; Epiphany Year A; Epiphany Year B; Epiphany 2 Year B 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. Languages: English Tune Title: DIX

Hail to the Lord's Anointed

great David's greater Son!
hail, in the time appointed,
his reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
to set the captive free,
to take away transgression,
and rule in equity.
2 He comes with succour speedy
to those who suffer wrong;
to help the poor and needy,
and bid the weak be strong;
to give them songs for sighing,
their darkness turn to light,
whose souls, condemned and dying,
were precious in his sight.
3 He shall come down like showers
upon the fruitful earth,
and love, joy, hope, like flowers,
spring in his path to birth:
before him on the mountains
shall peace, the herald, go;
and righteousness in fountains
from hill to valley flow.
4 Kings shall bow down before him,
and gold and incense bring;
all nations shall adore him,
his praise all people sing:
to him shall prayer unceasing
and daily vows ascend;
his kingdom still increasing,
a kingdom without end.
5 O'er every foe victorious,
he on his throne shall rest;
from age to age more glorious,
all-blessing and all-blest:
the tide of time shall never
his covenant remove;
his name shall stand for ever,
his changeless name of love. Scripture: Psalm 72 Languages: English Tune Title: CRÜGER

Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean,

Richer by far is the heart's adoration;
dearer to God are the prayers of the poor. Scripture: Luke 2:10-14 Languages: English Tune Title: WALKER
