On Jordan's bank the Baptist's cry
Author: Chandler; C. Coffin Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #44b (1894) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Preparation for Christ Lyrics: 1 On Jordan's banks the Baptist's cry
Announces that the Lord is nigh;
Awake, and hearken, for he brings
Glad tidings of the King of kings.
2 Then cleansed be every Christian breast,
And furnished for so great a guest;
Yea, let us each our hearts prepare
For Christ to come and enter there.
3 For Thou art our salvation, Lord,
Our refuge and our great reward;
Without Thy grace we waste away,
Like flowers that wither and decay.
4 To heal the sick stretch out Thine hand,
And bid the fallen sinner stand;
Once more upon Thy people shine,
And fill the world with love divine.
5 All praise, eternal Son, to Thee,
Whose Advent set Thy people free;
Whom with the Father we adore,
And Holy Ghost for evermore.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: CANTIONALE DE GOTHA

Wake, awake, for night is flying

Nicolai Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #40a (1894) Meter: Irregular Topics: Preparation for Christ Lyrics: 1 Wake, awake, for night is flying:
The watchmen on the height are crying,
Awake, Jerusalem, arise!
Midnight's solemn hour is tolling,
His chariot wheels are nearer rolling,
He comes; prepare, ye Virgins wise.
Rise up; with willing feet,
Go forth, the Bridegroom meet:
Alleluia!
Bear thro' the night your well-trimm'd light,
Speed forth to join the marriage rite.
2 Sion hears the watchmen singing,
Her heart and deep delight is springing,
She wakes, she rises from her gloom:
Forth her Bridegroom comes, all-glorious,
In grace arrayed, in truth victorious;
Her Star is risen, her Light is come!
All hail, Incarnate Lord,
Our crown, and our reward!
Alleluia!
We haste along, in pomp of song,
And gladsome join the marriage throng.
3 Lamb of God, the heavens adore Thee,
And men and angels sing before Thee,
With harp and cymbal's clearest tone.
By the pearly gates in wonder
We stand, and swell the voice of thunder,
That echoes round Thy dazzling throne.
No vision ever brought,
No ear hath ever caught,
Such bliss and joy:
We raise the song, we swell the song,
To praise Thee ages all along.
Amen.

And ever be with Thee.

Spent the night, the day at hand;
Keep me in my lowly station,

4 With my lamp well trimmed and burning,
Swift to hear and slow to roam,
Watching for Thy glad returning
To restore me to my home.
Come, my Saviour,
Thou hast promised: quickly come.

the vault of heaven springs
mute witness of the Master's hand
in all created things,
and through the silences of space
their soundless music sings.
2 The dawn returns in splendor,
the heavens burn and blaze,
the rising sun renews the race
that measures all our days,
and writes in fire across the skies
God's majesty and praise.
3 So shine the Lord's commandments
to make the simple wise;
more sweet than honey to the taste,
more rich than any prize,
a law of love within our hearts,
a light before our eyes.
4 So order too this life of mine,
direct it all my days;
the meditations of my heart
be innocence and praise,
my rock and my redeeming Lord,
in all my words and ways. Scripture: Psalm 19 Tune Title: DEERFIELD

the domed sky bears the Maker’s mark.
New praises sound from day to day
and echo through the knowing dark.
Without a word their songs roll on;
into all lands their voices run.
And with a champion’s strength and grace
from farthest heaven comes forth the sun.
2 God’s perfect law revives the soul;
its precepts make the simple wise.
Its just commands rejoice the heart;
its truth gives light unto the eyes.
Forever shall this law endure:
unblemished, righteous, true, complete.
No gold we ever found so fine,
no honey in the comb more sweet.
3 God’s servant may I ever be:
this world my joy, that word my guide.
O cleanse me, LORD, from secret sin;
deliver me from selfish pride.
Accept my thoughts and words and deeds;
let them find favor in your sight.
For you alone can make me whole,
O LORD, my refuge and my might. Scripture: Psalm 19 Tune Title: CREATION

Let GOD, the GOD of Battle, rise
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #LXVIII (1767) Topics: Prophecies Of Jesus Christ, concerning his Ascension; Songs of Praise to God On bringing up the Ark to the Place prepared for it; Thanksgivings For Victories Lyrics: 1 Let GOD, the GOD of Battle, rise,
And scatter his presumptuous Foes;
Let shameful Rout their Host surprise,
Who spitefully his Pow'r oppose.
2 As Smoke in Tempests Rage is lost,
Or Wax into the Furnace cast;
So let their sacrilegious Host,
Before his wrathful Presence waste.
3 But let the Servants of his Will
His Favour's gentle Beams enjoy;
Their upright Hearts let Gladness fill,
And chearful Songs their Tongues employ.
4 To him your Voice in Anthems raise;
JEHOVAH's awful Name he bears:
In him rejoice, extol his Praise,
Who rides upon high-rolling Spheres.
5 Him, from his Empire of the Skies,
To this low World Compassion draws,
The Orphan's Claim to patronize,
And judge the injur'd Widow's Cause.
6 'Tis GOD, who from a foreign Soil,
Restores poor Exiles to their Home;
Makes Captives free; and fruitless Toil,
Their proud Oppressors righteous Doom.
7 'Twas so of old, when thou didst lead
In Person, LORD, our Armies forth;
Strange Terrors thro' the Desart spread,
Convulsions shook th'astonish'd Earth.
8 The breaking Clouds did Rain distil,
And Heav'n's high Arches shook with Fear,
How then should Sinai's humble Hill,
Of Israel's GOD, the Presence bear?
9 Thy Hand, at famish'd Earth's Complaint,
Reliev'd her from celestial Stores;
And, when thy Heritage was faint,
Assuag'd the Drought with plenteous Show'rs.
10 Where Savages had rag'd before,
At Ease thou mad'st our Tribes reside,
And in the Desert, for the Poor
Thy gen'rous Bounty did provide.
Part II
11 Thou gav'st the Word, we sallied forth,
And in that pow'rful Word o'ercame;
Whilst Virgin-troops, with Songs of Mirth,
In State our Conquests did proclaim.
12 Vast Armies, by such Gen'rals led,
As yet had ne'er receiv'd a Foil,
Forsook their Camp with sudden Dread,
And to our Women left the Spoil.
13 Tho' Egypt's Drudges you have been,
Your Army's Wings shall shine as bright
As Doves in golden Sunshine seen,
Or silver'd o'er with paler Light.
14 'Twas so, when GOD's almighty Hand
O'er scatter'd Kings the Conquest won;
Our Troops, drawn up on Jordan's Strand,
High Salmon's glitt'ring Snow outshone.
15 From thence to Jordan's farther Coast,
And Bashan's Hill, we did advance:
No more her Height shall Bashan boast,
But that she's GOD's Inheritance.
16 But wherefore (tho' the Honour's great)
Should this, O Mountain, swell your Pride?
For Sion is his chosen Seat,
Where he forever will reside.
17 His Chariot's numberless; his Pow'rs
Are heav'nly Hosts, that wait His Will;
His Presence now fills Sion's Tow'rs,
As once it honour'd Sinai's Hill.
18 Ascending high, in Triumph, thou
Captivity hast Captive led;
And on thy People didst bestow
The Spoil of Armies, once their Dread.
19 Ev'n Rebels shall partake thy Grace,
And humble Proselytes repair,
To worship at thy Dwelling Place,
And all the World pay Homage there.
20 For Benefits each Day bestow'd,
Be daily his great Name ador'd;
Who is our Saviour, and our GOD,
Of Life and Death the Sov'reign LORD.
21 But Justice for His harden'd Foes,
Proportion'd Vengeance hath decreed,
To wound the hoary Head of those,
Who in presumptuous Crimes proceed.
22 The LORD hath thus in Thunder spoke,
"As I subdu'd prous Bashan's King,
"Once more I'll break my People's Yoke,
"And from the Deep my Servants bring:
23 "Their Feet shall with a crimson Flood
"Of slaughter'd Foes be cover'd o'er;
"Nor Earth receive such impious Blood,
"But leave for Dogs th' unhallow'd Gore."
Part III
24 When, marching to thy blest Abode,
The wond'rous Multitude survey'd
The pompous State of Thee, O GOD,
In Robes of Majesty array'd.
25 Sweet-singing Levites led the Van,
Loud Instruments brought up the Rear,
Between both Troops, a Virgin Train
With Voice and Timbrel charm'd the Ear.
26 This was the Burden of their Song,
"In full Assemblies bless the LORD,
"All who to Israel's Tribes belong,
"The GOD of Israel's Praise record."
27 Nor little Benjamin alone
From neighb'ring Bounds did there attend,
Nor only Judah's nearer Throne,
Her Counsellors in State did send.
28 But Zebulon's remoter Seat,
And Napthli's more distant Coast,
(The grand Procession to complete)
Sent up their Tribes, a princely Host.
29 Thus GOD, to Strength and Union brought
Our Tribes, at Strife till that blest Hour:
This Work, which Thou, O GOD, hast wrought,
Confirm with fresh Recruits of Pow'r.
30 To visit Salem, LORD, descend
And Sion, thy terrestrial Throne;
Where Kings with Presents shall attend,
And Thee with offer'd Crowns attone.
31 Break down the Spear-Mens Ranks, who threat
Like pamper'd Herds of savage Might,
Their silver-armour'd Chiefs defeat,
Who in destructive War delight.
32 Egypt shall then to GOD stretch forth
Her Hands, and Afric Homage bring:
32 The scatter'd Kingdoms of the Earth,
Their common Sov'reigns Praises sing;
33 Who, mounted on the loftiest Sphere
Of antient Heav'n, sublimely rides;
From whence his dreadful Voice we hear,
Like that of warring Winds and Tides.
34 Ascribe the Pow'r to GOD most high;
Of humble Israel he takes Care;
Whose Strength, from out the dusky Sky,
Darts shining Terrors thro' the Air.
35 How dreadful are the sacred Courts,
Where GOD has fix'd his earthly Throne!
His Strength his feeble Saints supports:
Praise ye the LORD, our GOD alone. Scripture: Psalm 68 Languages: English Tune Title: [Let God, the God of Battle, rise]
