• [Psa 127:2] He Giveth His Beloved Sleep

  Sorrow and care may meet, The tempest cloud may low’r, The surge of sin may beat Upon earth’s troubled shore; God doth His own in safety keep, He giveth His belovèd sleep, He giveth His belovèd sleep. The din of war may roll, With all her raging flight, Grief may oppress the soul, Throughout the weary nigh; God doth His own in safety keep, He giveth His belovèd sleep, He giveth His belovèd sleep. In childhood’s winsome page, In manhood’s joyous bloom, In feebleness and age, In death’s dark gathering gloom, God will His own in safety keep, He giveth His belovèd sleep, He giveth His belovèd sleep.

  Joy and light, joy and light, Over the crystal sea; Come, come, soft and bright, Over the crystal sea. Come on your snowy pinions white, Come in the silent calm of night, Watch when the pale stars keep, Bring the troubled one, Bring the weary one sleep. Love and rest, love and rest, Carol in silver tone; Glad songs, pure and blest, Carol in silver tone. Come from the fadeless flowers that grow, Come from the sparkling streams that flow, Come in the midnight deep, Bring the troubled one, Bring the weary one sleep. Voice divine, voice divine, Speak, and our souls shall hear; Sweet, sweet words are Thine, Speak, and our souls shall hear. Tell of a cloudless region fair, Tell of the many mansions there, Speak to the hearts that weep, Bring the troubled one, Bring the weary one sleep.

• [Psa 127:2] Of All The Thoughts Of God

  Of all the thoughts of God that are Borne inward into souls afar, Along the psalmist’s music deep, Now tell me if there any is, For gift or grace surpassing this: “He giveth His belovèd sleep”? What would we give to our beloved? The hero’s heart to be unmoved, The poet’s star tuned harp, to sweep, The patriot’s voice, to teach and rouse, The monarch’s crown, to light the brows? He giveth His belovèd sleep. “Sleep soft, belovèd!” we sometimes say, Who have no tune to charm away Sad dreams that through the eyelids creep But never doleful dream again Shall break the happy slumber when He giveth His belovèd sleep. His dews drop mutely on the hill, His cloud above it saileth still, Though on its slope men sow and reap; More softly than the dew is shed, Or cloud is floated overhead, He giveth His belovèd sleep.

Matthew 25:3-10

• [Mat 25:4] World Is Sad With Hopes That Die, The

  The world is sad with hopes that die, With joys that gleam and then go by, And dim the mortal eyes that gaze On setting suns of parting days. Better the hope, the joy, the light For spiritual heart and sight! For they whose life is hid on high Shall never part and never die. They never part! that saintly band, Heirs of the heavenly, holy land; Whom God the Spirit hath made one With God the Father and the Son. They never die! the deathly strife But ushers them to glorious life: From their last enemy they gain Their birth to bliss, their end to pain. But woe to them whose hearts are given To joys and treasures not of Heaven; Their wild awaking is to shame, The second death in endless flame. O Jesu, teach our hearts to soar And grasp those things which are before, That after death our life may be The immortality with Thee!

May not His voice appall us, While slumber binds our breasts; May all our lamps be burning, And oil be found in store, That we, with Him returning, May open find the door. There shall we see delighted Our dear Redeemer’s face, Who leads our souls benighted To glory by His grace; The patriarchs shall meet us, The prophets’ holy band, Apostles, martyrs, greet us In that celestial land.

Our Father, rich in blessing, Will give us crowns of gold And, to His bosom pressing, Impart a bliss untold, Will welcome with embraces Of never ending love, And deck us with His graces In blissful realms above. In yonder home shall never Be silent music’s voice; With hearts and lips forever We shall in God rejoice; The angels shall adore Him, All saints shall sing His praise, And bring with joy before Him Their sweetest heav’nly lays. In mansions fair and spacious Will God the feast prepare, And ever kind and gracious, Bid us its riches share; There bliss that knows no measure From springs of love shall flow, And never changing pleasure His bounty will bestow.

To a strange sweet harp of Zion The starry host troops forth: The golden-glaived Orion To a strange sweet harp of Zion, The Archer and the Lion, The Watcher of the north: To a strange sweet harp of Zion The starry host sweeps forth. There beams above a manger The child-face of a star; Amid the stars a stranger, It beams above a manger, What means this ether-ranger To pause where poor folk are? There beams above a manger The child-face of a star.

• [Mat 2:9] Shine On

  See the brightly shining star, As its radiance beams afar, Guide the feet of weary pilgrims To the place where Jesus lay. Like a beacon from its height, Burning brightly in the night, As the wise men followed onward, Safely guided all the way. Refrain Shine on! shine on! Beautiful star of light; Shine on! shine on! Cheering the gloomy night; Shine on! shine on! Sending thy rays afar, Shine on thro’ the darkness, Oh, thou fairest star. It is shining still for thee, With a glory fair to see, As it leadeth ever upward To the palace of the King. So we follow thro’ the night, Safely guided by its light, While our hearts respond with gladness To the song the angels sing. Refrain So today that star alone Is the light to lead us on To the feet of Christ our Savior, He our Prophet, Priest and King, As it brightly burns above, Sentry of the King of love, While we follow onward, upward And His praises sweetly sing. Refrain

• [Mat 2:9] Shine On, Bethlehem’s Star

  O wondrous star of Bethlehem! That in the heavens bright Shone forth to guide the pilgrims’ feet, Unto the Prince of Light, Shine on thro’ endless ages, While ringing thro’ the sky; His loyal ones still hear the song: “Glory to God on high!” Refrain Shine on, Bethlehem’s star, Send thy light afar; Tell of Jesus’ birth Till His glory fills the earth. O blessèd star of Bethlehem! Still gild with heav’nly ray The pathway to the Holy One Who comes to us today. Gleam thro’ the darksome shadows That fill the heart with fear, Till weary souls shall see the light, Knowing that Christ is near. Refrain O wondrous star of Bethlehem! Shine on; we too would bring Our lives a willing sacrifice, With gladness to the King. With joy we travel onward, Encircled by the glow— The glory of the fadeless Star, Jesus, whose love we know.

Matthew 2:2

• [Mat 2:2] Beautiful Star

  The wise men of old saw a beautiful star, Led on by its glory they traveled afar; O’er mountain and valley ’til wanderings past, Their gifts at the feet of the Savior they cast. Refrain Beautiful beautiful star of the east Beautiful beautiful star of the east Scatter the shadows of sin far away, Lead us to Jesus, the Star of the day. The star of the east was the herald of day, The light everlasting that fades not away; Its beams rising higher, O hasten and see, The Light of the world shines for you and for me. Refrain The star of His Word guards His people today, To sweet joy in Jesus ’tis leading the way. Then still let us follow and lovingly bring Our hearts and our off’rings to Jesus our King. Refrain To those who in darkness are straying afar, We’ll show the pure rays of the beautiful star. We’ll tell them of Jesus, that at His dear feet, The saved of all nations shall joyfully meet.

• [Mat 2:2] Christians, Lo, The Star Appeareth

  Christians, lo, the star appeareth; Lo ’tis yet Messiah’s day; Still with tribute treasure laden Come the wise men on their way. Where a life is spent in service, Walking where the Master trod, There is scattered myrrh most fragrant For the blessèd Christ of God. Whoso bears his brother’s burden, Whoso shares another’s woe, Brings his frankincense to Jesus With the men of long ago. When we soothe earth’s weary children Tending best the least of them, ’Tis the Lord himself we worship, Bringing gold to Bethlehem. Christians, lo, the star appeareth Leading still the ancient way; Christians, onward with your treasure; It is still Messiah’s day.

• [Mat 2:2] King Might Miss The Guiding Star, A

  A king might miss the guiding star, A wise man’s foot might stumble; For Bethlehem is very far From all except the humble. ’Tis Christmas Day! ’Tis Christmas Day! And Christian hearts are humble. Some pilgrims seek a hallowed shrine; Some soldiers march to danger; Some travelers seek an inn—its sign “The Baby in a manger.” When Christ was born on Christmas morn, They laid Him in a manger. There is no palace in that place, Nor any seat of learning, No hilltop vision of God’s face, No altar candles burning: O come and see our Christmas tree And Christmas candles burning. But he who gets to Bethlehem Shall hear the oxen lowing; And, if he humbly kneel with them, May catch far trumpets blowing; From far away, on Christmas Day, May hear God’s trumpets blowing.

• [Mat 2:2] Silver Star, The

  On the brow of night there shines a silver star, On the brow of night there shines a silver star, And the wise men gaze on its heav’nly rays, Till they find the King, whose throne they sought afar, In the Babe of Bethlehem. Refrain Silver star, holy light, Shine afar, o’er the night, Till the world shall come where the young Child lay, And enter the gates of the newborn day. ’Tis the lamp of God high hanging in the air, ’Tis the lamp of God high hanging in the air, And it guides our feet thro’ the royal street; There is sweet soul-rest for those who seek it there, From the Babe of Bethlehem. Refrain Bring your gifts of gold, of frankincense and myrrh, Bring your gifts of gold, of frankincense and myrrh, For the King we own is on David’s throne; Let the holy Child your best affections stir; ’Tis the Babe of Bethlehem.

Refrain Star, star, beautiful star! Pilgrims weary we are; To Jesus, to Jesus, We follow thee from afar. In the land of the East, in the shadows of night, We saw the glory of thy new light, Telling us, in our distant home, The King-Redeemer to earth hath come!

• [Mat 2:2] Whence Come This Rush Of Wings?

  Whence comes this rush of wings afar, Following straight the Noël star? Birds from the woods in wondrous flight, Bethlehem seek this holy night. “Tell us, ye birds, why come ye here, Into this stable, poor and drear?” “Hast’ning we seek the newborn King, And all our sweetest music bring.” Hark how the greenfinch bears his part, Philomel, too, with tender heart, Chants from her leafy dark retreat, Re, mi, fa, sol, in accents sweet. Angels and shepherds, birds of the sky, Come where the Son of God doth lie; Christ on the earth with man doth dwell, Join in the shout, “Noël, Noël!”

• [Mat 2:2] Where Is The Holy Heav’n-born Child?

  Where is the holy Heav’n-born Child, Heir of the everlasting throne, Who Heav’n and earth hath reconciled, And God and man rejoined in one? Shall we of earthly kings inquire, To courts or palaces repair? The nation’s Hope, the world’s Desire, Alas! we cannot find Him there. Shall learning show the sinner’s Friend, Or scribes a sight of Christ afford? Us to His natal place they send, But never go to see their Lord. We search the outward Church in vain, They cannot Him we seek declare, They have not found the Son of Man, Or known the sacred Name they bear. Then let us turn no more aside, But use the light Himself imparts, His Spirit is our surest Guide, His Spirit glimmering in our hearts. Drawn by His grace we come from far, And fix on Heav’n our wistful eyes, That ray divine, that orient star Directs us where the Infant lies. See there! the newborn Savior see, By faith discern the great I AM; ’Tis He! the eternal God! ’tis He That bears the mild Immanuel’s Name. The Prince of Peace on earth is found, The Child is born, the Son is giv’n; Tell it to all the nations round, Jehovah is come down from Heav’n! Jehovah is come down to raise His dying creatures from their fall, And all may now receive the grace Which brings eternal life to all. Lord, we receive the grace and Thee, With joy unspeakable receive, And rise Thine open face to see, And one with God for ever live.
