Joy to the World, the Lord is come

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: LH1941 #87 (1941) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Joy to the world, the Lord is come! Lyrics: 1 Joy to the world, the Lord is come! Let earth receive her King; Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room And heav'n and nature sing, And heav'n and nature sing, And heav'n, and heav'n and nature sing. 2 Joy to the earth, the Savior reigns! Let men their songs employ, While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains, Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat, repeat the sounding joy. 3 No more let sins and sorrows grow Nor thorns infest the ground; He comes to make His blessings flow Far as the curse is found, Far as the curse is found, Far as, far as the curse is found. 4 He rules the world with truth and grace, And makes the nations prove The glories of His righteousness, And wonders of His love, And wonders of His love, And wonders, wonders of His love.

This Night a Wondrous Revelation

Author: Anna Hoppe; Caspar F. Nachtenhöfer Hymnal: LH1941 #88 (1941) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 This night a wondrous revelation Makes known to me God’s love and grace; The Child that merits adoration Brings light to our benighted race; And though a thousand suns did shine, Still brighter were that Light divine. 2 The Sun of Grace for thee is beaming; Rejoice, my soul, in Jesus’ birth! The light from yonder manger streaming Sends forth its rays o’er all the earth. It drives the night of sin away And turns our darkness into day. 3 This light, which all thy gloom can banish, The bliss of heaven glorifies; When sun and moon and stars shall vanish, Its rays shall still illume the skies. This light thro' all eternity Thy heav'n and all to thee shall be. 4 O Jesus, precious Sun of gladness, Fill Thou my soul with light, I pray. Dispel the gloomy night of sadness And teach Thou me this Christmas Day How I a child of light may be, Aglow with light that comes from Thee. Amen.

Let the Earth Now Praise the Lord

Author: Heinrich Held; Catherine Winkworth; Unknown Hymnal: LH1941 #91 (1941) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Let the earth now praise the Lord. Who hath truly kept His word And the sinners’ Help and Friend Now at last to us doth send. 2 What the fathers most desired, What the prophet’s heart inspired, What they longed for many a year, Stands fulfilled in glory here. 3 Abram’s promised great Reward, Zion’s Helper, Jacob’s Lord-- Him of two-fold race behold-- Truly came, as long foretold. 4 Welcome, O my Savior, now! Hail! My Portion, Lord, art Thou. Here, too, in my heart, I pray, Oh, prepare Thyself a way! 5 King of Glory, enter in; Cleanse it from the filth of sin, As Thou hast so often done; It belongs to Thee alone. 6 As Thy coming was in peace, Quiet, full of gentleness, Let the same mind dwell in me That was ever found in Thee. 7 Comfort my desponding heart: Thou my Strength and Refuge art. I am weak, and cunningly Satan lays his snares for me. 8 Bruise for me the Serpent’s head, That, set free from doubt and dread, I may cleave to Thee in faith, Safely kept through life and death. 9 And when Thou dost come again As a glorious King to reign, I with joy may see Thy face, Freely ransomed by Thy grace. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Christmas Scripture: Luke 24:27 Languages: English Tune Title: NUN KOMM, DER HEIDEN HEILAND

Cheer my wearied spirit, O pure and holy Child; Thro' Thy grace and merit, Blest Jesus, Lord most mild, Draw me unto Thee! Draw me unto Thee! 3 Now thro' His Son doth shine The Father's grace divine. Death o'er us had reigned Thro' sin and vanity; He for us obtained Eternal joy on high. May we praise Him there! May we praise Him there! 4 Oh, where shall joy be found? Where but on heav'nly ground? Where the angels singing With all His saints unite, Sweetest praises bringing In heav'nly joy and light, Oh, that we were there! Oh, that we were there! Amen.

To Thee alone we live, In Thee alone we die; O Jesus, dearest Lord, With Thee we reign on high. Amen.

O wondrous Child Of the Virgin undefiled! Tho' by all the world disowned, Still to be in heav'n enthroned. 4 From the Father forth He came And returneth to the same, Captive leading death and hell-- High the song of triumph swell! 5 Thou the Father's only Son, Hast o'er sin the victory won. Boundless shall Thy kingdom be; When shall we its glories see? 6 Brightly doth Thy manger shine, Glorious is its light divine. Let not sin o'ercloud this light; Ever be our faith thus bright. 7 Praise to God the Father sing, Praise to God the Son, our King, Praise to God the Spirit be Ever and eternally. Amen.
