I Bind unto Myself Today

Author: Patrick; Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: Glory to God #6 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Incarnation Lyrics: 1 I bind unto myself today the strong name of the Trinity by invocation of the same, the Three in One and One in Three. 2 I bind this day to me forever, by power of faith, Christ’s incarnation, his baptism in the Jordan river, his death on cross for my salvation, his bursting from the spiced tomb, his riding up the heavenly way, his coming at the day of doom, I bind unto myself today. 3 I bind unto myself today the virtues of the starlit heaven, the glorious sun’s life-giving ray, the whiteness of the moon at even, the flashing of the lightning free, the whirling wind’s tempestuous shocks, the stable earth, the deep salt sea around the old eternal rocks. 4 I bind unto myself today the power of God to hold and lead, God’s eye to watch, God’s might to stay, God’s ear to hearken to my need, the wisdom of my God to teach, God’s hand to guide, God’s shield to ward, the word of God to give me speech, God’s heavenly host to be my guard. 5 Christ be with me, Christ within me, Christ behind me, Christ before me, Christ beside me, Christ to win me, Christ to comfort and restore me. Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ in quiet, Christ in danger, Christ in hearts of all that love me, Christ in mouth of friend and stranger. 6 I bind unto myself the name, the strong name of the Trinity by invocation of the same, the Three in One and One in Three, of whom all nature has creation, eternal Father, Spirit, Word. Praise to the Lord of my salvation; salvation is of Christ the Lord! Scripture: Genesis 1 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. PATRICK

Reynolds Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #23 (1926) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Christ Incarnation; Incarnation of Christ Lyrics: 1 Come, Thou Saviour of our race, Choicest Gift of heav'nly grace! O Thou blessed Virgin's Son, Be Thy race on earth begun, Be Thy race on earth begun. 2 Not of mortal blood or birth, He descends from heaven to earth: By the Holy Ghost conceived, God and man by us believed, God and man by us believed. 3 Wondrous birth! O wondrous Child Of the virgin undefiled! Though by all the world disowned, Still to be in heaven enthroned, Still to be in heaven enthroned. 4 From the Father forth He came, And returneth to the same; Captive leading death and hell,-- High the song of triumph swell! High the song of triumph swell! 5 Equal to the Father now, Though to dust Thou once didst bow, Boundless shall Thy kingdom be; When shall we its glories see? When shall we its glories see? 6 Brightly doth Thy manger shine! Glorious in its light divine: Let not sin o'ercloud this light, Ever be our faith thus bright, Ever be our faith thus bright. Amen.

This Child shall be your Friend; The Father so hath willed it, That thus your woes should end. The Son is freely given, That in Him ye may have The Father's grace and blessing, And know He loves to save. 3 Nor deem the form too lowly That clothes Him at this hour; For know ye what it hideth? 'Tis God's almighty power. Though now within the manger So poor and weak He lies, He is the Lord of all things, He reigns above the skies. Amen.

God unto men draweth near, Bringing to lost ones salvation. 2 God in man’s nature! O mystery past comprehending! Now is the temple thrown wide and the incense ascending! Christ is the way! We who were once far away, Now at His footstool are bending. 3 Hast Thou, O Holy One, deigned of my need to be thinking? Chosen me, called me, the waters of life to be drinking? Shall not my mind Fullness of blessing here find, Deep in humility sinking? 4 Faithful Immanuel! let me Thy glories be telling; Ever, my Saviour, be Thou in mine inmost heart dwelling. With me abide; Teach me to stay at Thy side, Where the love-fountain is welling. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: LOBE DEN HERREN

The Incarnate God

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #37 (1844) Topics: The Incarnation of Christ First Line: Let earth and heaven combine Lyrics: 1 Let earth and heaven combine, Angels and men agree, To praise, in songs divine, The incarnate Deity; Our God contracted to a span, Incomprehensibly made man. 2 He laid his glory by, And wrapped him in our clay; Unmarked by human eye, The latent Godhead lay; Infant of Days he here became, And bore the loved Immanuel’s name. 3 Unsearchable the love That has the Saviour brought; The grace is far above Or man’s or angel’s thought; Suffice for us, that God we know, Our God, was manifest below!

Rejoice, ye Gentile lands, rejoice, All hail Messiah’s dawn; Our God comes down, earth’s joy and crown: The King of Love is born. 4 Glad Gentiles in their eastern home His radiant star behold; To God, their King, they joy to bring Sweet incense, myrrh, and gold. Rejoice, ye Gentile lands, rejoice, In heaven your praises sing, Before Him fall, the Lord of all, Your Maker and your King! 5 We join your song, celestial throng, Whose anthems never cease; We tune our lyres, with angels choirs, To hail the Prince of Peace! Rejoice, ye Gentile lands, rejoice, All hail Immanuel’s morn; For God comes down, frail man to crown: To us a Child is born. Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 60:1-6 Languages: English Tune Title: MATERNA
