SONGS OF THANKFULNESS AND PRAISE

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.

Christopher Wordsworth (1807-1885)

SONGS OF THANKFULNESS AND PRAISE

Manifest at Jordan's stream,

Prophet, Priest and King supreme;

And at Cana, wedding guest,

In thy Godhead manifest;

Manifest in power divine,

Changing water into wine;

Anthems be to thee addressed,

God in man made manifest.

Christopher Wordsworth (1807-1885)

SONGS OF THANKFULNESS AND PRAISE

Manifest in making whole

Palsied limbs and fainting soul;

Manifest in valiant fight,

Quelling all the devil's might;

Manifest in gracious will,

Ever bringing good from ill;

Anthems be to thee addressed,

God in man made manifest.

Christopher Wordsworth (1807-1885)

SONGS OF THANKFULNESS AND PRAISE

Sun and moon shall darkened be,

Stars shall fall, the heavens shall flee;

Christ will then like lightning shine,

All will see his glorious sign;

All will then the trumpet hear,

All will see the Judge appear;

Thou by all wilt be confessed,

God in man made manifest.

Christopher Wordsworth (1807-1885)

SONGS OF THANKFULNESS AND PRAISE

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.

Christopher Wordsworth (1807-1885)
