Rejoice, All Ye Believers

Author: Laurentius Laurentil, 1660-1722 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #12 (1901) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, all ye believers, And let your lights appear! The evening is advancing, And darker night is near. The Bridegroom is arising, And soon He draweth nigh. Up, pray, and watch, and wrestle,-- At midnight comes the cry! 2 The watchers on the mountain Proclaim the Bridegroom near; Go meet Him as He cometh, With hallelujahs clear. The marriage-feast is waiting, The gates wide-open stand; Up, up ye heirs of glory, The Bridegroom is at hand! 3 Ye saints, who here in patience Your cross and sufferings bore, Shall live and reign for ever, When sorrow is no more. Around the throne of glory The Lame ye shall behold, In triumph cast before Him Your diadems of gold! 4 Our Hope and Expectation, O Jesus, now appear; Arise, Thou Sun so longed for, O'er this benighted sphere! With hearts and hands uplifted, We plead, O Lord, to see The day of earth’s redemption, That brings us unto Thee! Amen. Topics: Advent Languages: English Tune Title: HAF TRONES LAMPA FÄRDIG

All Hail to Thee, O Blessed Morn!

Author: J. O. Wallin, 1779-1839 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #13a (1901) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 All hail to thee, O blessed morn! To tidings long by prophets borne, Hast Thou fulfillment given. O sacred and immortal day, When unto earth, in glorious ray, Descends the grace of heaven! Singing, Ringing, Sounds are blending, Praises sending Unto heaven For the Lord to mankind given. 2 ’Tis God’s own Image and, withal, The Son of Man, that mortals all May find in Him a brother. He comes, with peace and love to bide On earth, the erring race to guide, And help, as could no other; Rather Gather Closer, fonder, Sheep that wander, Feed and fold them, Than let evil powers hold them. 3 He tears, like other men, will shed, Our sorrows share, and be our aid, Through His eternal power; The Lord’s good will unto us show, And mingle in our cup of woe The drops of mercy’s shower; Dying, Buying Through His passion Our salvation And to mortals Opening the heavenly portals. 4 He comes, for our redemption sent, And by His glory heaven is rent To close upon us never: Our blessed Shepherd He would be, Whom we may follow faithfully And be with Him forever; Higher, Nigher Glory winging, Praises singing To the Father And His Son, our Lord and Brother.

Behold the Joyful Day is Nigh

Author: Johan Olof Wallin, 1779-1839 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #14 (1901) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Behold the joyful day is nigh, And angels’ voices from on high Proclaim the news in early morn That the Good Shepherd now is born. 2 In quiet splendor forth He comes, The scattered sheep and tender lambs He'll gather, and their fold prepare With all a shepherd’s tender care. 3 So meek and mild we Him behold; And not with silver nor with gold, But by His suffering and His death, He saves us from eternal wrath. 4 His church, though small its seed may be, Shall rise a tall and mighty tree, With fruitful branches spreading o’er The earth till time shall be no more. 5 His Word shall like a gentle rain Make all the earth rejoice again, And yield a rich and blest increase In truth, and purity, and peace. 6 And heaven and earth shall pass away, Yet shall His Word remain for aye: All tongues shall soon with one accord Proclaim Him Saviour, God, and Lord. 7 Arise and shine, thy Light is come, O humankind, O Christendom; Thy glory and thy peace is here; The Saviour of the world draws near. 8 All praise and glory be to Thee For wisdom, power, and majesty; And for Thy grace and mercy, Lord, Forever be Thy name adored.

Rejoice, Rejoice, Ye Christians

Hymnal: HOoS1901 #15 (1901) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians, With all your hearts, this morn! Oh, hear the blessed tidings, The Lord, the Christ, is born. Now brought us by the angels That stand about God's throne; Oh, lovely are the voices That make such tidings known! 2 Oh, hearken to their singing! This Child shall be your Friend; The Father so hath willed it, That thus your woes should end. The Son is freely given, That in Him ye may have The Father's grace and blessing, And know He loves to save. 3 Nor deem the form too lowly That clothes Him at this hour; For know ye what it hideth? 'Tis God's almighty power. Though now within the manger So poor and weak He lies, He is the Lord of all things, He reigns above the skies. 4 Sin, death, and hell, and Satan Have lost the victory; This Child shall overthrow them, As ye shall surely see. Their wrath shall naught avail them; Fear not, their reign is o'er; This Child shall overthrow them,-- Oh, hear, and doubt no more! Amen. Topics: Christmas Languages: English Tune Title: LAUSANNE

Good News from Heaven, the Angels Bring

Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #16 (1901) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Good news from heaven the angels bring Lyrics: 1. Good news from heaven the angels bring, Glad tidings to the earth they sing: To us this day a Child is given, To crown us with the joy of heaven. 2 This is the Christ, our God and Lord, Who in all need shall aid afford; He will Himself our Saviour be, And from our sins will set us free. 3 To us that blessedness He brings, Which from the Father's bounty springs: That in the heavenly realm we may With Him enjoy eternal day. 4 All hail, Thou noble Guest, this morn, Whose love did not the sinner scorn: In my distress Thou com’st to me, What thanks shall I return to Thee? 5 Were earth a thousand times as fair, Beset with gold and jewels rare, She yet were far too poor to be A narrow cradle, Lord, for Thee. 4 Ah, dearest Jesus, holy Child, Make Thee a bed, soft, undefiled, Within my heart, that it may be A quiet chamber kept for Thee. 7 Praise God upon His heavenly throne, Who gave to us His only Son; For this His hosts, on joyful wing, A blest New Year of mercy sing.

And Thou, O long-expected Guest, Hast come at last to make us blest! 3 Now art Thou here: we know Thee now: In lowly manger liest Thou: A Child, yet makest all things great; Poor, yet the earth Thy robe of state. 4 Now fearlessly I come to Thee: From sin and grief Thou set'st me free; Thou bear'st the wrath, dost death destroy, And turnest sorrow into joy. 5 Thou art my Head, my Lord divine: I am Thy member, wholly Thine; And by Thy Spirit’s gracious power Will seek to serve Thee evermore. 6 Thus will I sing Thy praises here, With joyful spirit year by year: And in Thy courts of joy above Forever will I sing Thy love.

The Happy Christmas Comes Once More

Hymnal: HOoS1901 #18 (1901) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The happy Christmas comes once more; The heavenly Guest is at the door, The blessed words the shepherds thrill, The joyous tidings: Peace, Good-will. 2 To David's city let us fly, Where angels sing beneath the sky; Through plain and village pressing near, And news from God with shepherds hear. 3 Oh, let us go with quiet mind, The gentle Babe with shepherds find, To gaze on Him who gladdens them, The loveliest flower of Jesse's stem. 4 The lowly Saviour meekly lies, Laid off the splendor of the skies; No crown bedecks His forehead fair, No pearl, nor gem, nor silk is there. 5 No human glory, might, and gold, The lovely infant's form enfold; The manger and the swaddlings poor Are His, whom angels' songs adore. 6 Oh, wake our hearts, in gladness sing, And keep our Christmas with our King, Till living song, from loving souls, Like sound of mighty water rolls! 7 O holy Child, Thy manger streams Till earth and heaven glow with it beams, Till midnight hath noon's bright lisht has won, And Jacob's Star outshines the sun. 8 Thou Patriarchs' joy, Thou Prophets' song, Thou heavenly Day-Spring, looked for long, Thou Son of man, incarnate Word, Great David's Son, great David's Lord! 9 Come, Jesus, glorious heavenly Guest, Keep Thine own Christmas in our breast, Then David's harp-string, hushed so long, Shall swell our Jubilee of song. Amen. Topics: Christmas Languages: English Tune Title: DET KIMER NU TIL JULEFEST (EMMANUEL)

Amen. Topics: Christmas Languages: English Tune Title: ANTIOCH
