3. Hail, Thou all-inviting Savior! Gentiles now their offerings bring; In Thy temple seek Thy favor. Jesus Christ, our Lord and King. May we, body, soul, and spirit, Live devoted to Thy praise, Glorious realms of bliss inherit, Grateful anthems ever raise! Basil Wood, 1813. 183 7s 6 l As with gladness men of old Did the guiding star behold, As with joy they hailed its light, Leading onward, beaming bright, So, most gracious Lord, may we Evermore be led by Thee. 2. As with joyful steps they sped To that lowly manger-bed. There to bend the knee before Him whom heaven and earth adore, So may we with willing feet Ever seek Thy mercy-seat. 3. As they offered gifts most rare At that manger rude and bare, So may we with holy joy, Pure and free from sin’s alloy, All our costliest treasures bring, Christ, to Thee, our heavenly King. 4. Holy Jesus, every day Keep us in the narrow way; And when earthly things are past, Bring our ransomed souls at last Where they need no star to guide, Where no clouds Thy glory hide. 5. In the heavenly country bright Need they no created light; Thou its Light, its Joy, its Crown, Thou its Sun which goes not down; There forever may we sing Alleluias to our King! W. C. Dix, 1860. 184 7s 8 l 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. 2. 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. 3. 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. 4. 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.
