Lift Up Your Heads, Ye Mighty Gates

Behold the King of glory waits!

The Savior of the world is here.

Where Christ the ruler is confest!
O happy hearts and happy homes
To whom this King of triumph comes!

Make it a temple, set apart
From earthly use for heav'n's employ,
Adorned with prayer and love and joy.

Let new and nobler life begin;
Thy Holy Spirit guide us on,
Until the glorious crown be won. Topics: Kingdom/Reign of God; Second Coming; Kingdom/Reign of God; Second Coming; Kingdom/Reign of God; Second Coming Scripture: Psalm 24 Languages: English Tune Title: TRURO

Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming
Author: Theodore Baker, 1851-1934 Hymnal: JS2003 #338 (2003) Meter: 7.6.7.6.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming
From tender stem hath sprung!
Of Jesse's lineage coming,
As those of old have sung.
It came a flower bright,
Amid the cold of winter,
When half spent was the night.
2 Isaiah 'twas foretold it,
This Rose I have in mind,
With Mary we behold it,
The Virgin Mother kind.
To show God's love aright,
She bore to us a Savior,
When half spent was the night.
3 O Flow'r, whose fragrance tender
With sweetness fills the air,
Dispel with glorious splendor
The darkness ev'rywhere;
True man, yet very God,
From sin and death now save us,
And share our ev'ry load. Languages: English Tune Title: ES IST EIN' ROS' ENSTSPRUNGEN

It Came Upon the Midnight Clear
Author: Edmund H. Sears, 1810-1876 Hymnal: JS2003 #339 (2003) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold:
"Peace on the earth, good will to all
From heav'n's all gracious King;"
The world in solemn stillness lay,
To hear the angels sing.
2 Still through the cloven skies they come,
With peaceful wings unfurled,
And still their heav'nly music floats
O'er all the weary world:
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hov'ring wing,
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.
3 And ye, beneath life's crushing load,
Whose forms are bending low,
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps and slow,
Look now! for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing:
O rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels sing.
4 For, lo, the days are hastening on,
By prophet bards foretold,
When with the ever circling years
Comes 'round the age of gold;
When peace shall over all the earth
Its ancient splendors fling,
And all the world give back the song
Which now the angels sing. Scripture: Genesis 11:1 Languages: English Tune Title: CAROL
It Came Upon the Midnight Clear
