The Comforter Has Come
Author: Frank Bottome Appears in 229 hymnals First Line: O spread the tidings 'round wherever man is found Lyrics: 1 O spread the tidings ’round, wherever man is found,
Wherever human hearts and human woes abound;
Let every Christian tongue proclaim the joyful sound:
The Comforter has come!
Chorus:
The Comforter has come, the Comforter has come!
The Holy Ghost from Heav’n, the Father’s promise giv’n;
O spread the tidings ’round, wherever man is found—-
The Comforter has come!
2 The long, long night is past, the morning breaks at last,
And hushed the dreadful wail and fury of the blast,
As o’er the golden hills the day advances fast!
The Comforter has come! (Chorus)
3 Lo, the great King of kings with healing in His wings,
To every captive soul a full deliv'rance brings;
And through the vacant cells the song of triumph rings;
The Comforter has come! (Chorus)
4 O boundless love divine! How shall this tongue of mine
To wond’ring mortals tell the matchless grace divine—-
That I, a child of hell, should in His image shine!
The Comforter has come! (Chorus)

With us sing our Savior's birth. (Chorus)

Where some day, thro' faith in His wonderful grace,

All People that on Earth Do Dwell

Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice;
Him serve with fear, His praise forth tell,
Come ye before Him and rejoice.

Without our aid He did us make;
We are His flock, He doth us feed,
And for His sheep He doth us take.

Approach with joy His courts unto;
Praise, laud, and bless His Name always,
For it is seemly so to do.

His mercy is for ever sure;
His truth at all times firmly stood,
And shall from age to age endure.

And our life in heav’n begun,
There will be no need of sun--
When love shines in. (Chorus)

To God Be the Glory
Author: Fanny J. Crosby Appears in 222 hymnals Refrain First Line: Praise the Lord, praise the Lord Lyrics: 1 To God be the glory, great things He hath done,

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the earth hear His voice!

Our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see. (Chorus)

Author: John Fawcett Appears in 2,271 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blest be the tie that binds
Our hearts in Christian love;
The fellowship of kindred minds
Is like to that above.

We pour our ardent prayers;
Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one,
Our comforts and our cares.
3 We share our mutual woes,
Our mutual burdens bear;
And often for each other flows
The sympathizing tear.
4 When we asunder part,
It gives us inward pain;
But we shall still be joined in heart,
And hope to meet again.

The First Noel, the Angel Did Say
Appears in 397 hymnals Refrain First Line: Noel, Noel, 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.
Chorus:
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. (Chorus)
3 And by the light of that same star,
Three wise came from country far;
To seek for a king was their intent,
And to follow the star wherever it went. (Chorus)
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. (Chorus)
5 Then entered in those wise men three,
Full rev'rently upon the knee,
And offered there in His presence
Their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense. (Chorus)
6 Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heav'nly Lord;
That hath made heav'n and earth of naught,
And with His blood mankind hath bought. (Chorus) Topics: Christ Advent and Birth; Christ Advent and Birth Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Used With Tune: [The first Noel, the angel did say] Text Sources: Traditional English carol
The First Noel, the Angel Did Say
Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
Author: Robert Robinson; E. Margaret Clarkson Appears in 2,201 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise His name--I'm fixed upon it--
Name of God's redeeming love.
2 Hitherto Thy love has blest me;
Thou hast bro't me to this place;
And I know Thy hand will bring me
Safely home by Thy good grace.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Bought me with His precious blood.
3 O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be!
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to Thee:
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart, O take and seal it,
Seal it for Thy courts above.
Amen.
