The Newborn King Who Comes Today

Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #40 (1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Hymnal Title: The Hymnal and Order of Service Lyrics: 1 The new-born King who comes to-day Brings tidings of great joy, Which sin can never take away, Nor death nor hell destroy. Rejoice, ye Gentile lands, rejoice, And hail this glorious dawn; For God comes down, frail man to crown: The Lord of life is born! 2 He comes not as a king of earth, In pomp and pride to reign; He seeks a poor and humble birth, But free from sinful stain; Rejoice, ye Gentile lands, rejoice, Glad hymns of triumph sing: The Wonderful, the Counsellor, He comes, your God and King! 3 For us He leaves His Father’s throne, His sapphire throne on high, And comes to dwell on earth alone, For fallen man to die. Rejoice, ye Gentile lands, rejoice, All hail Messiah’s dawn; Our God comes down, earth’s joy and crown: The King of Love is born. 4 Glad Gentiles in their eastern home His radiant star behold; To God, their King, they joy to bring Sweet incense, myrrh, and gold. Rejoice, ye Gentile lands, rejoice, In heaven your praises sing, Before Him fall, the Lord of all, Your Maker and your King! 5 We join your song, celestial throng, Whose anthems never cease; We tune our lyres, with angels choirs, To hail the Prince of Peace! Rejoice, ye Gentile lands, rejoice, All hail Immanuel’s morn; For God comes down, frail man to crown: To us a Child is born. Amen.

The Roseate Hues of Early Dawn

Author: Cecil Frances (Humphreys) Alexander Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #513 (1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Hymnal Title: The Hymnal and Order of Service Lyrics: 1 The roseate hues of early dawn, The brightness of the day, The crimson of the sunset sky, How fast they fade away! O for the pearly gates of heav'n! O for the golden floor! O for the Sun of Righteousness That setteth nevermore! 2 The highest hopes we cherish here, How fast they tire and faint! How many a spot defiles the robe That wraps an earthly saint! O for a heart that never sins! O for a soul washed white! O for a voice to praise our King, Nor weary day or night! 3 Here faith is ours, and heavenly hopes, And grace to lead us higher: But there are perfectness and peace Beyond our great desire. O by Thy love and anguish, Lord, O by Thy life laid down, O that we fall not from Thy grace, Nor cast away our crown! Amen.

America! America! May God thy gold refine, Till all success be nobleness, And every gain divine. 4 O beautiful for patriot dream That sees beyond the years Thine alabaster cities gleam, Undimmed by human tears!
