Hail To The Lord's Anointed

Author: J. Montgomery Hymnal: HCH11927 #75 (1927) Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed, Great David's greater Son! Hail, In the time appointed, His reign on earth begun! He comes to break oppression, To set the captive free, To take away transgression And rule in equity. 2 He comes with succor speedy 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, condemn'd and dying, Were precious in His sight. 3 Kings shall fall down before Him, And gold and incense bring; All nations shall adore Him, His praise all people sing; Foe He shall have dominion O'er river, sea and shore, Far as the eagle's pinion Or dove's light wing can soar. 4 He shall come down like showers Upon the fruitful earth; And love and joy 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. 5 For Him shall prayer unceasing And daily vows ascend; His kingdom still increasing, A kingdom without end. The mountain dews shall nourish A seed in weakness sown, Whose fruit shall spread and flourish And shake like Lebanon. 6 O'er every foe victorious He on His throne shall rest, From age to age more glorious, All-blessing and all-blest. The tide of time shall never His covenant remove; His name shall stand for ever; That name to us is love! Topics: Advent Languages: English Tune Title: [Hail to the Lord's Anointed]

Oh! that warning cry obey, Now prepare for God a way! Let the valleys rise to meet Him, And the hills bow down to greet Him. 3 Make ye straight what long was crooked, Make the rougher places plain: Let your hearts be true and humble, As befits His holy reign; For the glory of the Lord Now o'er earth is shed abroad, And all flesh shall see the token That His word is never broken.

O How Shall I Receive Thee

Author: Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: HCH11927 #78 (1927) Lyrics: 1 O how shall I receive Thee, How greet Thee, Lord, aright? All nations long to see Thee, My Hope, my heart's Delight! O kindle, Lord most holy, Thy fire within my breast, To do in spirit lowly All that may please Thee best. 2 Thy Zion palms is strewing, And branches fresh and fair; My heart, its pow'rs renewing, An anthem shall prepare. My soul puts off her sadness Thy glory to proclaim; With all her strength and gladness She fain would serve Thy name. 3 I lay in fetters groaning, Thou com'st to set me free; I stood, my shame bemoaning, Thou com'st to honor me. A glory Thou dost give me, A treasure safe on high, That will not fail nor leave me, As earthly riches fly. 4 Love caused Thine incarnation, Love brought Thee down to me; Thy thirst for my salvation Procur'd my liberty. O love beyond all telling, That led Thee to embrace, In love all love excelling, Our lost and fallen race! 5 Rejoice then, ye sad-hearted, Who sit in deepest gloom, Who mourn o'er joys departed, And tremble at your doom: He who alone can cheer you Is standing at the door; He brings His pity near you, And bids you weep no more.

Lo, He Comes With Clouds Descending

Hallelujah! See the day of God appear. 4 Yea, A-men, let all adore Thee, High on Thine eternal throne: Savior, take the power and glory; Claim the kingdom for Thine own. Oh, come quickly, oh, come quickly! Everlasting God, come down. Topics: Advent Languages: English Tune Title: [Lo, He comes with clouds descending]
