Once in Royal David's City
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #292 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Scripture: Matthew 1:23 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 meek and lowly
lived on earth our Savior holy.
3 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 feels for all our sadness,
and he shares in all our gladness.
4 And our eyes at last shall see him,
through his own redeeming love,
for that Child, so dear and gentle,
is our Lord in heav'n above,
and he leads his children on
to the place where he has gone.
5 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.
There his children gather round,
bright like stars, with glory crowned. Topics: Christmas; Christian year--Christmas; Christ's Example Languages: English Tune Title: IRBY

The First Noel
Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #290 (1995) Meter: Irregular with refrain Scripture: Matthew 1:23 First Line: The first Noel, the angel did say Refrain First Line: Noel, Noel Lyrics: 1 The first Noel, the angel did say,
was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay;
in fields where they lay keeping their sheep
on a cold winter's night that was so deep.
Refrain:
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
born is the King of Israel.
2 They looked up and saw a star
shining in the east, beyond them far,
and to the earth it gave great light,
and so it continued both day and night. [Refrain]
3 And by the light of that same star,
three wise men came from country far.
To seek for a king was their intent,
and to follow the star wherever it went. [Refrain]
4 This star drew nigh to the northwest,
o'er Bethlehem it took its rest,
and there it did both stop and stay,
right over the place where Jesus lay. [Refrain]
5 Then entered in those wise men three,
full reverently upon their knee,
and offered there in his presence,
their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense. [Refrain]
6 Then let us all with one accord
sing praises to our heavenly Lord,
That hath made heaven and earth of nought,
and with his blood mankind hath bought. [Refrain] Topics: Christmas; Christian year--Christmas; Christian year--Epiphany Languages: English Tune Title: THE FIRST NOEL

Join all the glorious names
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Together in Song #205 (1999) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Scripture: Matthew 1:18-25 Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names
of wisdom, love, and power,
that ever mortals knew,
that angels ever bore:
all are too mean to speak his worth,
too mean to set my Saviour forth.
2 But O what gentle terms,
what condescending ways
doth our Redeemer use
to teach his heavenly grace!
Mine eyes with joy and wonder see
what forms of love he bears for me.
3 Arrayed in mortal flesh,
he like an Angel stands,
and holds his promises
and pardons in his hands;
commissioned from his Father's throne
to make his grace to mortals known.
4 Great Prophet of my God,
my tongue would bless thy name;
by thee the joyful news
of our salvation came:
the joyful news of sins forgiven,
of hell subdued and peace with heaven.
5 Be thou my Counsellor,
my Pattern, and my Guide;
and through this desert land
still keep me near thy side:
O let my feet ne'er run astray,
nor rove, nor seek the crooked way.
6 I love my Shepherd's voice,
his watchful eyes shall keep
my wandering soul among
the thousands of his sheep:
he feeds his flock, he calls their names
his bosom bears the tender lambs.
7 To this dear Surety's hand
will I commit my cause;
he answers and fulfils
his Father's broken laws:
behold my soul at freedom set!
my Surety paid the dreadful debt.
8 Jesus my great High-Priest
offered his blood and died;
my guilty conscience seeks
no sacrifice beside:
his powerful blood did once atone
and now it pleads before the throne.
9 My Advocate appears
for my defence on high;
the Father bows his ear
and lays his thunder by:
not all that hell or sin can say
shall turn his heart, his love away.
10 My dear almighty Lord,
my Conqueror and my King,
thy sceptre and thy sword,
thy reigning grace I sing.
Thine is the power, behold I sit
in willing bonds before thy feet.
11 Now let my soul arise,
and tread the tempter down;
my Captain leads me forth
to conquest and a crown.
A feeble saint shall win the day,
though death and hell obstruct the way.
12 Should all the hosts of death,
and powers of hell unknown,
put their most dreadful forms
of rage and mischief on,
I shall be safe, for Christ displays
superior power, and guardian-grace.

behold, the King of glory waits!
The King of kings is drawing near,
the Saviour of the world is here;
salvation and new life he brings,

Our Maker, we sing praise,
mighty in all your ways.

with mercy ever at his side;
his kingly crown is holiness,
his scepter, pity in distress;
the end of all our woes he brings,

Our Saviour, we now raise
our grateful hymns of praise.
3 How blest the land, the city blest,
where Christ the ruler is confessed!
What happy hearts and happy homes
to whom this king in triumph comes!
The cloudless sun of joy he is,
Who brings us pure delight and bliss.
Our Comforter, we raise
our grateful hymns of praise.
4 Lift up the gates; lift up your heart,
make it a temple set apart
from earthly use for heaven's employ,
adorned with prayer and love and joy:
so shall your sovereign enter in,
and new and nobler life begin.
To you, O God, be praise
for word, and deed, and grace.
5 Redeemer, come! With me abide,
my heart to you I open wide.
Let me your inner presence feel,
your grace and love in me reveal;
your Holy Spirit guide us on
until our glorious goal is won.
Eternal praise and fame
we offer to your name. Topics: Adoration and Praise; Advent; Christ tne King Sunday; City; Inner Peace; Jesus Christ Kingship; Joy; New Life in Christ; Personal Response to Jesus; Redemption Languages: English Tune Title: MACH NOCH DIE TÜR

Angels We Have Heard on High
Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #288 (1995) Meter: 7.7.7.7 with refrain Scripture: Matthew 1:23 Lyrics: 1 Angels we have heard on high,

while we raise our hearts in love. [Refrain]
