Christ, whose glory fills the skies
Christ, the true, the only Light
Sun of Righteousness, arise
Triumph o’er the shades of night
Dayspring from on high, be near
Daystar, in my heart appear
Dark and cheerless is the morn
Were it ever without thee
Joyless is the day’s return
Till thy mercy’s beams I see
Till they inward light impart
Glad my eyes, and warm my heart
Visit then this soul of mine
Pierce the gloom of sin and grief
Fill me, radiancy divine
Scatter all my unbelief
More and more thyself display
Shining to the perfect day
Dayspring from on high, be near
Daystar, in my heart appear

Praise my soul, the King of heaven
To His feet thy tribute bring;
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Evermore His praises sing:
Alleluia, alleluia! Praise the everlasting King.
Praise Him for His grace and favor
To His people in distress;
Praise Him still the same as ever,
Slow to chide to swift to bless.
Alleluia, alleluia! Glorious in His faithfulness.
Alleluia, alleluia! Glorious in His faithfulness.
Father-like He tends and spares us;
Well our feeble frame He knows;
In His hand He gently bears us,
Rescues us from all our foes.
Alleluia, alleluia! Widely yet His mercy flows.
Alleluia, alleluia! Widely yet His mercy flows.
Angels, help us to adore Him;
Ye behold Him face to face;
Sun and moon, bow down before Him,
dwellers all in time and space.
Alleluia, alleluia! Praise with us the God of grace.
Alleluia, alleluia! Praise with us the God of grace.

Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
And with fear and trembling stand;
Ponder nothing earthly minded,
For with blessing in His hand,
Christ our God to earth descendeth,
Our full homage to demand.
King of kings, yet born of Mary,
As of old on earth He stood,
Lord of lords, in human vesture,
In the body and the blood;
He will give to all the faithful
His own self for heavenly food.
Rank on rank the host of heaven
Spreads its vanguard on the way,
As the Light of light descendeth
From the realms of endless day,
That the powers of hell may vanish
As the darkness clears away.
Alleluia, Lord Most High
At His feet the six winged seraph,
Cherubim with sleepless eye,
Veil their faces to the presence,
As with ceaseless voice they cry:

Jesus, Lord of life and glory,
Bend from Heav’n Thy gracious ear;
While our waiting souls adore Thee,
Friend of helpless sinners, hear:
By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord.
From the depth of nature’s blindness,
From the hardening power of sin,
From all malice and unkindness,
From the pride that lurks within:
By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord, good Lord.
When the world around is smiling,
In the time of wealth and ease,
Earthly joys our hearts beguiling,
In the day of health and peace,
By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord, good Lord.
In the solemn hour of dying,
In the awful judgment day,
May our souls, on Thee relying,
Find Thee still our Rock and Stay:
By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord, good Lord.

Veiled in darkness Judah lay,
Waiting for the promised day,
While across the shadowy night
Streamed a flood of glorious light,
Heav’nly voices chanting then,
“Peace on earth, good will to men.”
“Peace on earth, good will to men.”
Still the earth in darkness lies.
Up from death’s dark vale arise
Voices of a world in grief,
Prayers of those who seek relief:
Now our darkness pierce again,
“Peace on earth, good will to men.”
“Peace on earth, good will to men.”
Light of light, we humbly pray,
Shine upon Thy world today;
Break the gloom of our dark night,
Fill our souls with love and light,
Send Thy blessed Word again,
“Peace on earth, good will to men.”
“Peace on earth, good will to men.”

Marvelous grace of our loving Lord,
Grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt!
Yonder on Calvary’s mount outpoured,
There where the blood of the Lamb was spilled.
Sin and despair, like the sea waves cold,
Threaten the soul with infinite loss;
Grace that is greater, yes, grace untold,
Points to the refuge, the mighty cross.
Son of God, our King
Bore the shame of sin
Where O death, is your sting?
He is risen!
Dark is the stain that we cannot hide.
What can we do to wash it away?
Look! There is flowing a crimson tide,
Brighter than snow you may be today.
Son of God, our King
Bore the shame of sin
Where O death, is your sting?
He is risen!
Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace,
Freely bestowed on all who believe!
You that are longing to see His face,
Will you this moment His grace receive?
Son of God, our King
Bore the shame of sin
Where O death, is your sting?
He is risen!

He Ever Loves Us
03:33
|
|||
He ever loves us in our brokenness
Weeps for every grief we face
Intercedes for us without ceasing
And bids us to receive His grace
And bids us to receive His grace
His love protects us through the dark night
Never leaves us in our pain
Shelters us with His presence
In weakness, He perfects His strength
He ever loves us in our brokenness
In the cross he hides our shame
Forsaken by the Father
He died for us, He took our place
|

Let thy Blood in mercy poured
Let thy gracious Body broken
Be to me, O gracious Lord of thy boundless love
The token
Thou didst die that I might live
Blessed Lord, thou cam’st to save me
All that love of God could give Jesus by his sorrows
Gave me
Thou didst give myself for me
Now I give myself to thee
By the thorns that crowned thy brow
By the spear-wound and the nailing
By the pain and death I now claim O Christ
Thy love unfailing
Thou didst give myself for me
Now I give myself to thee
Wilt thou own the gift I bring?
All my penitence I give thee
Thou art my exalted King of thy matchless love
Forgive me
Thou didst give myself for me
Now I give myself to thee

Grace Has Found a Way
03:57
|
|||
I see, I feel the sting of death
I cannot trust my righteousness
Now frightened, weakened by the law
What po’er undoes this mortal flaw?
Grace has found a way
Grace has found a way
Once all I sought was but to climb
Religious ladders in my mind
But there my God was never found
He had descended to the ground
To wash my dirty feet
Grace has found a way
Grace has found a way
Grace has found a way
In Jesus
When sinking down into despair
The Son of God, I found Him there
With sinners He had come to call
And I arrived, the worst of all
But still He welcomed me
Grace has found a way
Grace has found a way
Grace has found a way
In Jesus

Thou silver moon with softer gleam,
O praise Him! O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia!

Let all things their Creator bless,
And worship Him in humbleness.
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Praise, praise the Father, praise the Son
And praise the Spirit, Three in One
O praise Him! O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia!
