O little town of Bethlehem
Author: Phillips Brooks, 1835-1893 Hymnal: Common Praise #63a (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: Galatians 4:19 Lyrics: 1 O little town of Bethlehem,
how still we see thee lie!
above thy deep and dreamless sleep
the silent stars go by:
yet in thy dark streets shineth
the everlasting Light;
the hopes and fears of all the years
are met in thee tonight.
2 O morning stars, together
proclaim the holy birth,
and praises sing to God the King,
and peace to men on earth.
For Christ is born of Mary;
and, gathered all above,
while mortals sleep, the angels keep
their watch of wondering love.
3 How silently, how silently,
the wondrous gift is given!
so God imparts to human hearts
the blessings of his heaven.
No ear may hear his coming;
but in this world of sin,
where meek souls will receive him, still
the dear Christ enters in.
4 O holy Child of Bethlehem,
descend to us, we pray;
cast out our sin, and enter in:
be born in us today.
We hear the Christmas angels,
the great glad tidings tell:
O come to us, abide with us,
our Lord Emmanuel. Topics: Christmas; Chirstimas Midnight Languages: English Tune Title: FOREST GREEN

Jerusalem, my happy home
The New Jerusalem
Author: F. B. P. Hymnal: Laudes Domini #588 (1888) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Galatians 4:26 First Line: Jerusalem! my happy home! Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem! my happy home!
Name ever dear to me!
When shall my labors have an end,
In joy, and peace, in thee!
2 Oh, when, thou city of my God,
Shall I thy courts ascend,
Where congregations ne'er break up,
And Sabbaths have no end?
3 There happier bowers than Eden's bloom,
Nor sin nor sorrow know;
Blest seats! thro' rude and stormy scenes,
I onward press to you.
4 Why should I shrink at pain and woe!
Or feel, at death, dismay?
I've Canaan's goodly land in view,
And realms of endless day.
5 Apostles, martyrs, prophets there,
Around my Saviour stand;
And soon my friends in Christ below,
Will join the glorious band.
5 Jerusalem! my happy home!
My soul still pants for thee;
Then shall my labors have an end,
When I thy joys shall see.

hallowed be Thy name,
Thy kingdom come,

and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the kingdom and the pow'r
and the glory forever and ever.
Amen.
