O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Voices United #326 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Epiphany 6 Year A; Epiphany 6 Year B Lyrics: 1 O for a thousand tongues to sing
my great Redeemer's praise,
the glories of my God and king,
the triumphs of God's grace.
2 Jesus! the name that charms our fears,
that bids our sorrows cease;
'tis music in the sinner's ears,
'tis life and health and peace.
3 He speaks, and listening to his voice,
new life the dead receive,
the mournful broken hearts rejoice,
the humble poor believe.
4 Hear him, you deaf, you voiceless ones,
your tongues again employ;
you blind, behold your Saviour comes,
and leap, you lame, for joy!
5 My gracious Master and my God,
assist me to proclaim,
to spread through all the earth abroad
the honours of your name. Tune Title: AZMON

Hail to God's Own Anointed
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Voices United #30 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Epiphany 6 Year A Lyrics: 1 Hail to God's own anointed,
great David's greater Son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
God's reign on earth begun!
Christ comes to break oppression,
to set the captive free;
to take away transgression,
and rule in equity.
2 Christ comes with justice surely
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,
are precious in his sight.
3 Christ 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 To him shall prayer unceasing
and daily vows ascend,
his kingdom still increasing,
a kingdom without end.
The tide of time shall never
his covenant remove.
His name shall stand for ever:
that name to us is Love.

How Brightly Beams the Morning Star
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Johann Adolf Schlegel Hymnal: Voices United #98 (1996) Topics: Epiphany 6 Year A First Line: How brightly beams the Morning Star! Lyrics: 1 How brightly beams the Morning Star!
What sudden radiance from afar!
It cheers us with its shining.

and fills the darkened souls with light,
who long for truth were pining!

rightly leads us,
life bestowing.

2 All praise to him who came to save,
who conquered death and scorned the grave;
each day new praise resoundeth
to him, the life who once was slain,
the friend whom none shall trust in vain,
whose grace for aye aboundeth;
sing then, ring then, tell the story
of his glory,
till his praises
flood with light earth's darkest mazes! Languages: English Tune Title: WIE SCHÖN LEUCHTET

let us all thy life receive;
suddenly return, and never,
nevermore thy temples leave.

serve thee as thy hosts above,
pray, and praise thee, without ceasing,
glory in thy perfect love.
3 Finish then thy new creation;
pure and spotless let us be;
let us see thy great salvation
perfectly restored in thee,
changed from glory into glory,
till in heaven we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before thee,
lost in wonder, love, and praise.

to all who follow you,
that where you are in glory
your servant shall be too.

to serve you to the end:

my Saviour and my friend. Languages: English Tune Title: DAY OF REST

O Love, How Deep
Author: Benjamin Webb Hymnal: Voices United #348 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Epiphany 6 Year C First Line: O Love, how deep, how broad, how high! Lyrics: 1 O Love, how deep, how broad, how high!
It fills the heart with ecstasy,
that God, in Jesus Christ, should take
our mortal form for mortals' sake.
2 God sent no angel to our race
of higher or of lower place,
but wore the robe of human frame,
and freely to this lost world came.
3 For us he was baptized, and bore
a holy fast, and hungered sore;
for us temptations sharply knew;
for us the tempter overthrew.
4 For us he prayed; for us he taught;
for us great daily works were wrought,
by words, and signs, and actions, thus
still seeking not himself, but us.
5 For us to wicked foes betrayed,
scourged, mocked, in purple robe arrayed,
he bore the shameful cross and death;
for us at length gave up his breath.
6 For us he rose from death again,
for us he went on high to reign,
for us he sent his Spirit here
to guide, to strengthen, and to cheer.
7 To God whose boundless love has won
salvation for us through the Son,
to God all praise and glory be
both now and through eternity. Languages: English Tune Title: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR

of our life's wild restless sea,
day by day his clear voice sounding,
saying, "Christian, follow me."
2 Long ago apostles heard it
by the Galilean lake,
turned from home and toil and kindred,
leaving all for Jesus' sake.
3 Jesus calls us from the worship
of the vain world's golden store,
from each idol that would keep us,
saying, "Christian, love me more."
4 In our joys and in our sorrows,
days of toil and hours of ease,
still he calls, in cares and pleasures,
"Christian, love me more than these."
5 Jesus calls us: by your mercies,
Saviour, may we hear your call,
give our hearts to your obedience,
serve and love you best of all. Languages: English Tune Title: GALILEE

Immortal Love, Forever Full
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #166 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Year B Epiphany 6 Lyrics: 1 Immortal Love, forever full,
forever flowing free,
Forever shared, forever whole,
a never-ebbing sea!
2 Our outward lips confess the Name
all other names above;
love only knows from where it came
and comprehends God's love.
3 We may not climb the heavenly steeps
to bring the Sovereign down;
In vain we search the lowest deeps
for One no depths can drown.
4 But warm, sweet, tender, even yet
this One our help will be;
For faith has still its Olivet,
and love its Galilee.
5 The healing of Christ's seamless dress
still soothes our beds of pain;
We touch it in life's throng and press,
and we are whole again.
6 Through Christ our earliest prayers are said
with words we scarce can frame;
The last low whispers of our dead
still echo with Christ's name. Scripture: Philippians 2:9-11 Languages: English Tune Title: SERENITY

heaven will someday be theirs.
Blessed are the mourning children:
comfort comes from One who cares.
Blessed the meek and patient,
having courage to hang on.
Soon all earth they will inherit;
times of trials will be gone.
2 Blessed all who thirst or hunger:
righteously they will be fed.
Those who respond with mercy
will see mercy up ahead.
Blessed the clean in spirit -
beautiful, the pure in heart;
One day they will see their Maker,
nevermore to live apart.
3 Each seeking peace and justice
shall be known as God's own heir.
Blessed, too, are those ill-treated
for what's good and right and fair.
Blessed in New Creation,
joy beyond what we conceive;
Blessed all those who trust the promise:
without seeing, they believe! Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:17-18 Languages: English Tune Title: ANNIKA'S DANCE
