The Angel Gabriel from Heaven Came
Author: Sabine Baring-Gould, 1834-1924 Hymnal: WAR2003 #169 (2003) Meter: 10.10.12.10 Lyrics: 1 The angel Gabriel from heaven came,
his wings as drifted snow, his eyes as flame,
“All hail," said he, "O lowly maiden Mary,"
Most highly favored Mary, gloria!
2 “For know a blessèd mother you shall be,
all generations praise continually,
your Son shall be Emmanuel, by seers foretold,"
Most highly favored Mary, gloria!
3 Then gentle Mary meekly bowed her head.
“To me be as it pleases God,” she said.
“My soul shall laud and magnify God's holy name.”
Most highly favored Mary, gloria!
4 Of her, Emmanuel, the Christ, was born
in Bethlehem, all on a Christmas morn,
and Christian folk throughout the world will ever say:
Most highly favored Mary, gloria! Scripture: Luke 1:26-38 Languages: English Tune Title: GABRIEL'S MESSAGE

both to serve and adore.

where greed and hatreds spread their blight,
O send us forth with power endued,
help us, Lord, be renewed.

on our path let it shine;
tell of your works, your mighty acts of grace,
from each page show your face.
As you have loved us, sent your Son,
and our salvation now is won,
O let our hearts with love be stirred,
help us, Lord, know your Word.
3 Teach us to pray, for you are ever near,
your still voice let us hear.
Our souls are restless till they rest in you,
this the goal we pursue.
Before your presence keep us still
that we may find for us your will,
and seek your guidance every day,
teach us, Lord, how to pray.
4 Teach us to love, with strength of heart and mind,
each and all, humankind;
break down old walls of prejudice and hate,
leave us not to our fate.
As you have loved and given your life
to end hostility and strife,
O share your grace from heaven above,
teach us, Lord, how to love. Scripture: Galatians 3:16-20 Languages: English Tune Title: ALL IS WELL
