Rejoice, ye sons of men alway!

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #151 (1918) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 REJOICE, ye sons of men alway! God comes to you from heaven today; The Lord is born a little child Of Mary, virgin undefiled. 2 He is the Branch of Jesse's tree, The Lion out of Judah, He The Gentiles' Light, the promised Seed Who was to bruise the Serpent's head. 3 He brings us peace and happiness, And heals all sorrow and distress Which on account of Adam's fall Forever weighed upon us all. 4 Through His low birth and holy blood We all are saved by Christ, true God; The angel's glory we shall share, And in His kingdom live fore'er.

We Christians may

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #156 (1918) Meter: 4.4.11.4.4.11 Lyrics: 1 We Christians may Rejoice today, When Christ was born to comfort and to save us; Who thus believes No longer grieves, For none are lost who grasp the hope He gave us. 2 O wondrous joy, That God most high Should take our flesh, and thus our race should honor; A virgin mild Hath born this Child Such grace and glory God hath put upon her. 3 Sin brought us grief; But Christ, relief, When down to earth He came for our salvation; Since God with us Is dwelling thus, Who dares to speak the Christian's condemnation? 4 Then hither throng With happy song To Him whose birth and death are our assurance; Through whom are we at last set free From sins and burdens that surpassed endurance. 5 Yes, let us praise Our God, and raise Loud hallelujahs to the skies above us; The bliss, bestowed Today by God, To ceaseless thankfulness and joy should move us.

Praise God the Lord, ye sons of men

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #157 (1918) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Praise God the Lord, ye sons of men, Before His highest throne, Today He opens heaven again, And gives us His own Son. 2 He leaves His heavenly Father's throne, Is born an infant small, And in a manger poor and lone Lies in a humble stall. 3 He lays aside His power divine, A servant's form doth take, In want and lowness He doth pine Who heaven and earth did make. 4 He nestles at His mother's breast, Her milk His food must be, Whom saints and angels call the Blest, For David's house is He. 5 'Tis He who in these latter days From Judah's tribe should come, By whom the Lord again would raise His Church, His Christendom. 6 A wondrous change which He doeth make; He takes our flesh and blood, And lays aside for sinners' sake His majesty of God. 7 He serves, that I a lord may be; A great exchange, indeed! Could Jesus' love do more for me, To help me in my need? 8 He opens us again the door Of Paradise today; The cherub guards the gate no more. To God our thanks we pay.
