Foreword
A city strong we claim as ours
A glory fills the midnight skyssing
A heart of love the Lord displays
A man to Christ committed (St Barnabas)
A night of joy and wonderer
A righteous God in heaven reigns
A sound of singing fills the air
All shall at last appear
All that she could, she did for love of Christ
All things shall be made new
Almighty Father, God of grace
Almighty God, our prayer is still divine
Angelic hosts above, a child is born
Around the table of the Lord
As Jesus taught us, first we pray
As one in Christ the Lord
At the throne of graces
Be sure that God who calls us
Be with me through this day the earth
Behold a broken world, we pray (repeated from A House of praise, part one)
Behold us here, our Father and our God
Behold, the kingdom is the Lord's
Beyond what mind can measured since time began
Break into glad exultant song
Child of Mary, softly sleeping
Christ bids us break the bread all our days
Christ by angel hosts attendedhes bare
Christ ever lives! The tomb is bare
Christ is the Light upon our wayath
Christ is the shining sun of all our days
Christ pours his grace upon his ownre
Come, learn of God's kingdom, the kingdom of light
Come, let us tune our souls to sing
Come, rejoice with all things living
Consider him, our Saviour Christ
Down from the windows, the windows of heaven
Draw near to God in humble adoration
Draw near to God, he is not far to seek
Father of lights, the blaze of noon
Fathers and Mothers
Forsake the courts of heaven
Freed in Christ from death and sin
From the deep places, hear my cry
Give thanks to God above
Glorious praise to God be given
Glory to God, and praise
Glory to the God of heaven
God of all grace, your only Son
God of unchanging grace
God who formed the mighty ocean
Grant, O God, your gift unpriced
Had I been there that Christmas night
Hallow the Fatheras Name
Here in the presence of the Lord
High over all, beyond all praise
How dark the night of cloud and cares
How happy those indeed
How happy those who walk in truth
How shall we sing salvationas song
How vast is Godas unfailing love
Hymns and psalms and sacred songs
Immortal God, can mortal praise
In Christ is all I need
In Christ there lies the treasure
In God my heart rejoices
In the stillness, hark
Increase our faith, Lord, as was once the prayer
Jesus Christ is born today
Jesus the Son
Jesus, the saving Name
King Jesus had for palace
Last of the great prophetic line (John the Baptist)
Let this prayer, O Lord, be granted
Lift high your hearts in blessing
Light of the world, true light divine
Light on the path, a lamp about our way
Light to the world, a child is born
Look, Lord, again in blessing on this land
Lord Christ, the crucified
Lord, when I turned to you for aid
Love is the law that Jesus taught
Make of our life a house of praise
May the day come
Mercy and peace to all who love the Lord
Not ours to know the reasons
Numbered among the dead
O cross, between whose branches bare
O God of heaven, from whose hand
O God of peace, who gave us breath and birth
O God of strength and splendour
O God the Just, enthroned on high
O God who gave the living word
O God, from age to age the same
O God, whose angels see your face (St Michael and All Angels)
O God, whose throne eternal stands
O Lord, to whom all hearts are known
O Spirit of the Sovereign Lord
Our Father God, who gave us birth
Our Father lends a listening ear
Our God and Father, whose eternal mind
Our God be praised, and on his Name be blessing
Our God, who through another day
Peace be to you, was Jesus' word (St Thomas the Apostle)
