Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7 D with refrain Appears in 1,324 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 4:4-5 Lyrics: 1 Hark! The herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King. Peace on earth, and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled!" Joyful, all ye nations rise, Join the triumph of the skies; With the angelic host proclaim, "Christ is born in Bethlehem!" Refrain: Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King!" 2 Christ, by highest heaven adored, Christ the everlasting Lord! Late in time, behold Him come, Offspring of the virgin's womb. Veiled in flesh the Godhead see; Hail the incarnate Deity, Pleased in flesh with us to dwell, Jesus our Emmanuel. 3 Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace! Hail the Sun of Righteousness! Light and life to all He brings, Risen with healing in His wings. Mild He lays His glory by, Born that we no more may die. Born to raise us from the earth, Born to give us second birth.

Hymn 64

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 350 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 4:6 First Line: Behold what wondrous grace Lyrics: Behold what wondrous grace The Father has bestowed On sinners of a mortal race, To call them sons of God! 'Tis no surprising thing That we should be unknown; The Jewish world knew not their king, God's everlasting Son. Nor doth it yet appear How great we must be made; But when we see our Savior here, We shall be like our Head. A hope so much divine May trials well endure; May purge our souls from sense and sin, As Christ the Lord is pure. If in my Father's love I share a filial part, Send down thy Spirit like a dove, To rest upon my heart. We would no longer lie Like slaves beneath the throne; My faith shall Abba, Father, cry, And thou the kindred own.

Hymn 107

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 24 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 4:4 First Line: Deceived by subtle snares of hell Lyrics: Deceived by subtle snares of hell, Adam, our head, our father, fell; When Satan, in the serpent hid, Proposed the fruit that God forbid. Death was the threat'ning: death began To take possession of the man His unborn race received the wound, And heavy curses smote the ground. But Satan found a worse reward; Thus saith the vengeance of the Lord "Let everlasting hatred be Betwixt the woman's seed and thee. "The woman's seed shall be my Son; He shall destroy what thou hast done; Shall break thy head, and only feel Thy malice raging at his heel." He spake; and bid four thousand years Roll on; at length his Son appears; Angels with joy descend to earth, And sing the young Redeemer's birth. Lo, by the sons of hell he dies; But as he hung 'twixt earth and skies, He gave their prince a fatal blow, And triumphed o'er the powers below.]

(Refrain) 5 One day the trumpet will sound for his coming, one day the skies with his glories will shine; wonderful day, my belovèd ones bringing; glorious Savior, this Jesus is mine!

Sing, My Tongue, How Glorious Battle

Author: Venantius Fortunatus Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 4:4 Lyrics: Part I 1 Sing, my tongue, how glorious battle glorious victory became; and above the cross, his trophy, tell the triumph and the fame, tell how he, the world's Redeemer, by his death for us o'ercame. 2 God in pity saw us fallen, shamed and sunk in misery, when we fell on death by tasting fruit of the forbidden tree: then another tree was chosen which the world from death should free. 3 Thus the scheme of our salvation was of old in order laid, that the manifold deceiver's art by art might be outweighed, and the lure the foe put forward into means of healing made. 4 Therefore, when the appointed fullness of the holy time was come, he was sent, who maketh all things, forth from God's eternal home; thus he came to earth incarnate, offspring of a virgin's womb. Part II 5 Thirty years among us dwelling, his appointed time fulfilled, born for this, he meets his Passion, for that this he freely willed: on the cross the Lamb is lifted, where his life-blood shall be spilled. 6 Faithful cross! above all other, one and only noble tree! None in foliage, none in blossom, none in fruit thy peer may be! Sweetest wood and sweetest iron! Sweetest weight is hung on thee. 7 Thou alone wast counted worthy this world's ransom to uphold; for a shipwrecked race preparing harbor, like the ark of old; with the sacred blood anointed from the smitten Lamb that rolled. 8 To the Trinity be glory everlasting, as is meet; equal to the Father, equal to the Son and Paraclete: Trinal Unity, whose praises all created things repeat.
