Hymns for Baptism of our Lord Sunday
Opening hymn # We join in our Opening hymn # 130 v. 1, 5-6, "0 Jesus, King of Glory"
1. O Jesus, King of Glory, Both David's Lord and Son!
Thy realm endures forever, In heaven is fixed Thy throne.
Help that in earth's dominions, Throughout from pole to pole, Thy reign may spread salvation, To each benighted soul.
5. Ah, look on me with pity, Though I am weak and poor;
Admit me to Thy kingdom, To dwell there, blest and sure. I pray Thee, guide and keep me, Safe from my bitter foes, From sin and death and Satan; Free me from all my woes.
6. And bid Thy Word Within me, Shine as the fairest star;
Keep Sin and all false doctrine, Forever from me far.
Help me confess Thee truly, And with Thy Christendom
Here own Thee King and Savior, And in the world to come.
Sermon hymn # 298 v. 1-4, "Baptized into Thy Name most Holy"
l. Baptized into Thy name most holy, O Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
I claim a place, though weak and lowly, Among Thy seed, Thy chosen host. Buried with Christ and dead to sin, Thy Spirit now shall 'live within.
2. My loving Father, Thou dost take me, To be henceforth Thy child and heir; My faithful Savior, Thou dost make me, The fruit of all Thy sorrows share; Thou, Holy Ghost, wilt comfort me, When darkest clouds around I see.
3. And I have vowed to love and fear They And to obey Thee, Lord, alone; Because the Holy Ghost did move me, I dared to pledge myself Thine own, Renouncing sin to keep the faith, And war with evil unto death.
4. My faithful God, Thou frailest never, Thy Covenant surely 'Will abide; Oh, cast me hot away forever, Should I transgress it on my side!
Though I have oft .my soul defiled, Do Thou forgive, restore, Thy child.
Hymn # 577, “God Bless Our Native Land”
1. God bless our native land! Firm may she ever stand, Thro' storm and night! When the wild tempests rave, Ruler of wind and wave,
Do Thou our country save, By Thy great might.
2. For her our prayer shall rise, To God above the skies; On Him we wait.
Thou who art ever nigh, Guarding with watchful eye,
To Thee aloud we cry, God save the State! Amen.
Closing Hymn: # 134 v. 1, 5, “Songs of Thankfulness and Praise”
1. Songs of thankfulness and praise, Jesus, Lord, to Thee we raise,
Manifested by the star, To the sages from afar, Branch of royal David's stem, In Thy birth at Bethlehem. Anthems be to Thee addressed, God in man made manifest.
5. Grant us grace to see Thee, Lord, Mirrored in Thy holy Word;
May we imitate Thee now, And be pure as pure art Thou, That we like to Thee may be At Thy great Epiphany, And may praise Thee, ever blest, God in man made manifest.
