Author: J. M. Neale; J. Tisserand Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #670 (1920) Topics: Youth and School Life Carols First Line: O sons and daughters let us sing! Lyrics: Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! 1 O sons and daughters let us sing! The King of heaven, the glorious King, O'er death today rose triumphing. Alleluia! 2 That Easter morn, at break of day The faithful women went their way To seek the tomb where Jesus lay. Alleluia! 3 An angel clad in white they see, Who sat, and spake unto the three, "Your Lord doth go to Galilee." Alleluia! 4 That night the apostles met in fear; Amidst them came their Lord most dear, And said, "My peace be on all here." Alleluia! 5 When Thomas first the tidings heard, How they had seen the risen Lord, He doubted the disciples' word. Alleluia! 6 "My pierced hands, O Thomas, see; My hands, My feet, I show to thee; Not faithless, but believing be." Alleluia! 7 No longer Thomas then denied, He saw the feet, the hands, the side; "Thou art my Lord and God," he cried, Alleluia! 8 How blest are they who have not seen, And yet whose faith has constant been, For they eternal life shall win. Alleluia! 9 On this most holy day of days, To God your hearts and voices raise, In laud, and jubilee, and praise. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

God hath sent His Angels to the earth again

Author: P. Brooks Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #671 (1920) Topics: Youth and School Life Carols Lyrics: 1 God hath sent His Angels to the earth again, Bringing joyful tidings to the sons of men. They who first at Christmas, throng'd the heav'nly way, Now beside the tomb-door, sit on Easter Day. Refrain: Angels sing His triumph, as you sang His birth, "Christ the Lord is risen," "Peace, good-will on earth." 2 In the dreadful desert, where the Lord was tried, There the faithful Angels gathered at His side. And when in the garden, grief and pain and care Bowed Him down with anguish, they were with Him there. [Refrain] 3 Yet the Christ they honour, is the same Christ still, Who, in light and darkness, did His Father's will. And the tomb deserted, shineth like the sky, Since He passed out from it, into victory. [Refrain] 4 God has still His Angels, helping, at His word, All His faithful children, like their faithful Lord; Soothing them in sorrow, arming them in strife, Opening wide the tomb-doors, leading into Life. [Refrain] 5 Father, send Thine Angels unto us, we pray; Leave us not to wander, all along our way. Let them guard and guide us, wheresoe'er we be, Til our resurrection brings us home to Thee. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [God hath sent His Angels to the earth again]

Advent tells us Christ is near!

Christmas tells us Christ is here; In Epiphany we trace All the glory of His grace. 2 Those three Sundays before Lent Will prepare us to repent, That in Lent we may begin Earnestly to mourn for sin. 3 Holy Week and Easter, then, Tell Who died and rose again: O that happy Easter Day! 'Christ is risen indeed,' we say. 4 Yes, and Christ ascended, too, To prepare a place for you; So we give Him special praise After those great Forty Days. 5 Then He sent the Holy Ghost, On the day of Pentecost, With us ever to abide: Well may we keep Whitsuntide. 6 Last of all, we humbly sing Glory to our God and King, Glory to the One in Three On the Feast of Trinity.

Jesus, holy, undefiled

Author: E. M. Shapcote Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #620 (1920) Topics: Youth and School Life Lyrics: 1 Jesus, holy, undefiled, Listen to a little child; Thou hast sent the glorious light, Chasing far the silent night. 2 Thou hast sent the sun to shine O'er this glorious world of Thine, Warmth to give, and pleasant glow, On each tender flower below. 3 Now the little birds arise, Chirping gaily in the skies; Thee their tiny voices praise In the early songs they raise. 4 Thou by Whom the birds are fed, Give to me my daily bread; And Thy Holy Spirit give, Without Whom I cannot live. 5 Make me, Lord, obedient, mild, As becomes a little child; All day long, in every way, Teach me what to do and say. 6 Make me, Lord, in work and play, Thine more truly every day; And, when Thou at last shalt come, Take me to Thy heavenly home.

Dear Jesus, ever at my side

Author: F. W. Faber Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #626 (1920) Topics: Youth and School Life Lyrics: 1 Dear Jesus, ever at my side, How loving Thou must be, To leave Thy home in heaven to guard A little child like me. 2 I cannot feel Thee touch my hand, With pressure light and mild, To check me as my mother did, When I was but a child: 3 But I have felt Thee in my thoughts, Rebuking sin for me; And when my heart loves God, I know The sweetness is from Thee. 4 And when, dear Saviour, I kneel down, Morning and night in prayer, Something there is within my heart Which tells me Thou art there. 5 Yes, when I pray, Thou prayest too: Thy prayer is all for me; But when I sleep, Thou sleepest not, But watchest patiently.

By cool Siloam's shady rill

Author: R. Heber Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #627 (1920) Topics: Youth and School Life Lyrics: 1 By cool Siloam's shady rill, How fair the lily grows! How sweet the breath, beneath the hill, Of Sharon's dewy rose! 2 Lo! such the child whose early feet The paths of peace have trod, Whose secret heart, with influence sweet, Is upward drawn to God. 3 By cool Siloam's shady rill The lily must decay; The rose that blooms beneath the hill Must shortly fade away. 4 And soon, too soon the wintry hour Of man's maturer age Will shake the soul with sorrow's pow'r, And stormy passion's age. 5 O Thou, whose infant feet were found Within Thy Father's shrine, Whose years with changeless virtues crowned, Were all alike divine: 6 Dependent on Thy bounteous breath, We seek Thy grace alone, In childhood, manhood, age, and death, To keep us still Thine own.
