Whom angels greet with anthems sweet, while shepherds watch are keeping?

Good Christians, fear: for sinners here the silent Word is pleading. Nails, spears, shall pierce Him through, the cross be borne for me, for you. Hail, hail the Word made flesh, the Babe, the Son of Mary! 3 So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh, come peasant, king, to own Him; the King of kings salvation brings, let loving hearts enthrone Him. Raise, raise the song on high, the virgin sings her lullaby. Joy, joy for Christ is born, the Babe, the Son of Mary!

When Jesus Came to Jordan

Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: CGH2010 #152 (2010) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 When Jesus came to Jordan to be baptized by John, He did not come for pardon, but as the sinless one. He came to share repentance with all who mourn their sins, to speak the vital sentence with which good news begins. 2 He came to share temptation, our utmost woe and loss, for us and our salvation to die upon the cross. So when the dove descended on Him, the Son of Man, the hidden years had ended, the age of grace begun. 3 Come, Holy Spirit, aid us to keep the vows we make; this very day invade us, and every bondage break. Come, give our lives direction, the gift we covet most: to share the resurrection that leads to Pentecost.
