Tomorrow Christ is coming

Author: Fred Kaan Hymnal: VU1996 #27 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Tomorrow Christ is coming as yesterday he came; a child is born this moment, we do not know its name. The world is full of darkness, again there is no room; the symbols of existence are stable, cross and tomb. 2 Tomorrow will be Christmas, the feast of love divine, but for the nameless millions the star will never shine. Still is the census taken with people on the move; new infants born in stables are crying out for love. 3 There will be no tomorrows for many a baby born; Good Friday falls on Christmas when life is sown as corn. But Jesus Christ is risen and comes again in bread to still our deepest hunger and raise us from the dead. 4 Our God becomes incarnate in every human birth. Created in God's image, we must make peace on earth. God will fulfil Love's purpose and this shall be the sign: e shall find Christ among us as woman, child, or man.

Hail to God's Own Anointed

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: VU1996 #30 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Hail to God's own anointed, great David's greater Son! Hail, in the time appointed, God's reign on earth begun! Christ comes to break oppression, to set the captive free; to take away transgression, and rule in equity. 2 Christ comes with justice surely to those who suffer wrong, to help the poor and needy, and bid the weak be strong, to give them songs for sighing, their darkness turn to light, whose souls, condemned and dying, are precious in his sight. 3 Christ shall come down like showers upon the fruitful earth, and love, joy, hope, like flowers, spring in his path to birth. Before him on the mountains shall peace, the herald, go, and righteousness in fountains from hill to valley flow. 4 To him shall prayer unceasing and daily vows ascend, his kingdom still increasing, a kingdom without end. The tide of time shall never his covenant remove. His name shall stand for ever: that name to us is Love.

O Lord, How Shall I Meet You

Author: Paul Gerhardt; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: VU1996 #31 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Lord, how shall I meet you, how welcome you aright? Your people long to greet you, my hope, my heart's delight! O kindle, then, most holy, a lamp within my breast, to do in spirit lowly all that may please you best. 2 Love caused thine incarnation, love brought you here to me; your thirst for my salvation procured my liberty. O love beyond all telling, that led you to embrace in love all loves excelling our lost and fallen race. 3 A glorious crown you give me, a treasure safe on high, that will not fail nor leave me as earthly riches fly. My heart shall bloom forever for you with praises new, and from your name shall never withhold the honour due.
