The Happy Christmas Comes Once More
Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #18 (1901) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The happy Christmas comes once more;
The heavenly Guest is at the door,
The blessed words the shepherds thrill,
The joyous tidings: Peace, Good-will.
2 To David's city let us fly,
Where angels sing beneath the sky;
Through plain and village pressing near,
And news from God with shepherds hear.
3 Oh, let us go with quiet mind,
The gentle Babe with shepherds find,
To gaze on Him who gladdens them,
The loveliest flower of Jesse's stem.
4 The lowly Saviour meekly lies,
Laid off the splendor of the skies;
No crown bedecks His forehead fair,
No pearl, nor gem, nor silk is there.
5 No human glory, might, and gold,
The lovely infant's form enfold;
The manger and the swaddlings poor
Are His, whom angels' songs adore.
6 Oh, wake our hearts, in gladness sing,
And keep our Christmas with our King,
Till living song, from loving souls,
Like sound of mighty water rolls!
7 O holy Child, Thy manger streams
Till earth and heaven glow with it beams,
Till midnight hath noon's bright lisht has won,
And Jacob's Star outshines the sun.
8 Thou Patriarchs' joy, Thou Prophets' song,
Thou heavenly Day-Spring, looked for long,
Thou Son of man, incarnate Word,
Great David's Son, great David's Lord!
9 Come, Jesus, glorious heavenly Guest,
Keep Thine own Christmas in our breast,
Then David's harp-string, hushed so long,
Shall swell our Jubilee of song.

Till midnight noon's broad light hath won,

Thou Son of Man, incarnate Word,
Great David's Son, great David's Lord!

What need I, that is not in thee?
Full pardon, strength to meet the day,
And peace which none can take away.

'Tis sweet to know that thou art near;
Am I with dread of justice tried,
'Tis sweet to know that Christ hath died.

Forbid my heart to be afraid;
In death, peace gently veils the eyes:
Christ rose, and I shall surely rise.
