"Fear not," said he,--for mighty dread Had seized their troubled mind,-- "Glad tidings of great joy I bring, To you and all mankind. 2 "To you, in David's town this day, Is born of David's line, The Saviour, who is Christ, the Lord, And this shall be the sign;-- The heavenly babe you there shall find To human view displayed, All meanly wrapped in swathing bands, And in a manger laid." 3 Thus spake the seraph--and forthwith Appeared a shining throng Of angels, praising God, who thus Addressed their joyful song:-- "All glory be to God on high, And to the earth be peace; Good-will henceforth from heaven to men Begin, and never cease!"

Angels' music

Author: Edwin H. Sears Hymnal: Laudes Domini #184 (1888) Topics: Advent of Christ At Birth First Line: Calm on the listening ear of night Lyrics: 1 Calm on the listening ear of night, Come heaven's melodious strains, Where wild Judea stretches far Her silver-mantled plains. Celestial choirs, from courts above, Shed sacred glories there, And angels, with their sparkling lyres, Make music on the air. 2 The answering hills of Palestine Send back the glad reply, And greet from all their holy heights The Dayspring from on high: O'er the blue depths of Galilee There comes a holier calm; And Sharon waves in solemn praise Her silent groves of palm. 3 "Glory to God!" the lofty strain The realms of ether fills; How sweeps the song of solemn joy O'er Judah's sacred hills! "Glory to God!" the sounding skies Loud with their anthems ring: "Peace on the earth; good-will to men, From heaven's eternal King." Scripture: Luke 1:78 Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL

All praise to Him who, dying, Hath our salvation earned! No more death's fetter galls us, The grave no more appalls us, For Jesus lives again. 2 In glory Thou appearest, And earth is filled with light; With resurrection radiance The very tomb is bright; There's joy in heav'nly places When o'er all earthly races The dawn of mercy breaks. 3 Teach me with Thee to suffer, With Thee to live and die, In trial and temptation On Thy help to rely. To them alone who suffered With Thee the palm is offered When our last fight is won. 4 When in the morning watches Of that last day of dread Thou comest in Thy glory To judge both quick and dead, How sweet Thy promise spoken, Thyself the living token, That death shall be no more.

The Angels' Song

Author: Edwin H. Sears Hymnal: Laudes Domini #182 (1888) Topics: Advent of Christ At Birth First Line: It came upon the midnight clear 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 to the earth, good-will to men, From heaven's all-gracious King:" The earth in solemn stillness lay, To hear the angels sing. 2 Still through the cloven skies they come, With peaceful wings unfurled; And still celestial music floats O'er all the weary world; Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on heavenly wing, And ever o'er its Babel sounds, The blessed angels sing. 3 O ye, beneath life's crushing load, Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing way, With painful steps and slow;-- Look up! for glad and golden hours Come swiftly on the wing; Oh, 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 final splendors fling, And the whole world send back the song Which now the angels sing! Languages: English Tune Title: CAROL

Christ is God

Author: Robert Robinson Hymnal: Laudes Domini #224 (1888) Topics: Advent of Christ To Kingdom First Line: Mighty God! while angels bless thee Lyrics: 1 Mighty God! while angels bless thee, May a mortal lisp thy name? Lord of men, as well as angels! Thou art every creature's theme: Lord of every land and nation! Ancient of eternal days! Sounded through the wide creation-- Be thy just and awful praise. 2 For the grandeur of thy nature,-- Grand, beyond a seraph's thought; For the wonders of creation, Works with skill and kindness wrought; For thy providence, that governs Through thine empire's wide domain, Wings an angel, guides a sparrow;-- Blessed be thy gentle reign. 3 For thy rich, thy free redemption, Bright, though vailed in darkness long, Thought is poor, and poor expression; Who can sing that wondrous song? Brightness of the Father's glory! Shall thy praise unuttered lie? Break, my tongue! such guilty silence, Sing the Lord who came to die:-- 4 From the highest throne of glory, To the cross of deepest woe, Came to ransom guilty captives!-- Flow, my praise! for ever flow: Re-ascend, immortal Saviour! Leave thy footstool, take thy throne; Thence return and reign for ever;-- Be the kingdom all thine own! Scripture: Matthew 10:29 Languages: English Tune Title: AUTUMN
