The Sign 9.9.9.9. Music: BrycheiniogAn angel appeared to the shepherdsAs they tended their sheep on that night,Foretold of the birth of the Saviour,Who would banish the dark with His light.

He told of a sign that would guide themTo the place where the infant would lay;For God placed a star in the heavensAs a sign on that first Christmas Day.

So leaving their sheep far behind them,With the star shining brightly above,They followed the sign to a stable,And there worshipped God’s mercy and love.

They knelt at the altar of heaven,All their gifts and their praises did bring,Though they saw the tiniest baby,All their worship was poured on a king.© 2006 : Colin Gordon-Farleigh

In the fields the shepherds watching,Heard the angel choir above;Saw the star that shone so brightly,Telling all of God’s great love.Wise men from the east came quickly,Worshipping the Christ-child there;Bringing royal gifts a-plenty,Gold and frankincense and myrrh.

From the darkness of that stable,From the simple infant birth,Came the glory of the Father,Bringing light upon the earth.Light that all the blind may see,Light that shines from Christ alone,Through the grace of God the FatherCan be ours to have and own.© Colin Gordon-Farleigh, 2006

One night He prayed all alone in the garden,Sweat fell like blood, in blessed drops from His frame;Seeking to serve God, His Father in heaven,He’d pay the ransom, for sin bear the shame. Stars shone above Him as He was sleeping,Nobody knew of the pain He would bear;Jesus came down to bring us to salvation,And on the cross God’s great love would declare.

Now He is risen, and seated in glory,Waiting the time when the angel choirs sing;Jesus will come for His people awaiting,Then we’ll proclaim Him our Saviour and King!Stars shone above Him as He was sleeping,Nobody knew of the pain He would bear;Jesus came down to bring us to salvation,And on the cross God’s great love would declare.© 2011 : Colin Gordon-Farleigh

That Night DSMTUNE: LeominsterThe starlit sky is clear,the snow is crisp and white:no stable can be seen, and yetmy thoughts are of that night.That night so long ago;that land so far away;where one star shone so brightly then,‘bove where the Saviour lay.

‘Twas there amongst the beasts,the star above shone bright,God came to earth as tiny babe,an infant child, that night.There in that stable crude,by that dim, flick’ring light,He came to earth to save mankind;our Saviour born that night.© 2010 :Colin Gordon-Farleigh

At Calvary 88 88 TUNE: Duke StreetMy hope lies in the One who died,who died for me upon the cross;scourged, then fast-nailed upon that tree,He died for all at Calvary.

When darkness fell toward the end,as He hung there upon the tree;no man could tell what love would beproclaimed for us at Calvary.

When He was placed within the tomb,after His death on that sad day,the stone was rolled for all to seethat Christ had died at Calvary.

On the third day He rose again,defeated death and vanquished sin;all the joy that could ever be,replaced the tears of Calvary.

We celebrate the living Christ,who died, yet lives again for all,we share our Saviour’s victory,because He died at Calvary.© 2006 : Colin Gordon-Farleigh

In the darkest tomb they laid Him,In the garden trees were sighing;All was silent, save the cryingOf His friends at Calvary.

Thanks 6666TUNE: Quam DilectaWe thank You our Lord God,For everything You give;For everything we have,That shows us how to live.

All things to us are giv’n,Our lives You richly bless;Now freely we repent,And Jesus Christ confess.

The harvest fields are ripe,You call us all to go;To reap and gather in,The harvest here below.

So let us labour here,Until our work is done;May all that we achieve,Be for Your Kingdom won.© 2007 : Colin Gordon-Farleigh

Spirit of God 88 88 88TUNE: MelitaGod’s Spirit comes from up above,As we draw closer to His love;For with our Lord we will conspire,To fill us with the Spirit’s fire.Hear sounds of mighty rushing wind,The Spirit of our God has come.

We are enriched by God’s great pow’r,To serve the Lord at ev’ry hour;And we, with hearts so full aflame,The saving grace of Christ proclaim.So we, full of the Spirit’s grace,Will serve Him in time and space.

We’ll tell about the Son of God,And of the path on earth He trod;Of how He cured the blind and lame,And praise His glorious, blesséd name.Then, onward urged by God’s blest grace,Point mankind to the Saviour’s face.

We’ll tell the world He’ll come again,To take His own to be with Him;A mansion up in heav’n above,Prepared by Jesus through His love.And we the Spirit will embrace,Then serve the Lord blessed by God’s grace.© 2011 : Colin Gordon-Farleigh
