The Newborn King Who Comes Today

Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #40 (1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Christmas Day 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. Scripture: Isaiah 60:1-6 Languages: English Tune Title: MATERNA

Once in royal David's city

Author: Cecil Frances Alexander, 1818-1895 Hymnal: Common Praise #66 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Christmas Day Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city stood a lowly cattle shed, where a mother laid her baby in a manger for his bed: Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little child. 2 He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all, and his shelter was a stable, and his cradle was a stall; with the poor and mean and lowly lived on earth our Saviour holy. 3 And through all his wondrous childhood he would honour and obey, love and watch the lowly maiden, in whose gentle arms he lay: Christian children all must be mild, obedient, good as he. 4 For he is our childhood's pattern, day by day like us he grew, he was little, weak, and helpless, tears and smiles like us he knew; and he feeleth for our sadness, and he shareth in our gladness. 5 And our eyes at last shall see him, through his own redeeming love, for that child so dear and gentle is our Lord in heaven above; and he leads his children on to the place where he is gone. 6 Not in that poor lowly stable, with the oxen standing by, we shall see him; but in heaven, set at God's right hand on high; where like stars his children crowned all in white shall wait around.
