The only Son from heaven
Author: Elizabeth Cruciger Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.6 Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The only Son from heaven,
Foretold by ancient seers,
By God, the Father, given,
In human form appears;
No sphere His light confining,
No star so brightly shining
As He, our Morning Star.
2 O time of God appointed,
O bright and holy morn!
He comes, the King anointed,
The Christ, the virgin-born;
His home on earth He maketh,
And man of heaven partaketh,
Of life again an heir.
3 O Lord, our hearts awaken,
To know and love Thee more,
In faith to stand unshaken,
In Spirit to adore,
That we still heavenward hasting,
Yet here Thy joy foretasting
May reap its fulness there.

Born in the flesh to save us,
And cleanse us in His blood.

Our Guide in grief and gloom.

Brought in the age of grace;
Lo, all the earth is radiant
With light, and hope, and peace.
Our prison He demolished,
Death’s power He abolished,
And opened Heaven’s gate.

And grace on us bestow,
To walk by Thine own guidance,
Thy saving truth to know.
For Thee our hearts are yearning,
From worldly pleasures turning
Unto Thy righteousness.
4. Into Thy hand the Father
Gave all, that we might be
In bonds of faith united,
And dedicate to Thee,
A people through Thy merit
Entitled to inherit
Thy realm eternally. Used With Tune: FÖRLOSSNINGEN ÄR VUNNEN Text Sources: Latin

In Triumph Our Redeemer
Author: Erik Gustaf Geijer Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In triumph our Redeemer
Is now to life returned.
All praise to Him who, dying,
Hath our salvation earned!
No more death's fetter galls us,
The grave no more appalls us,
For Jesus lives again.
2 In glory Thou appearest,
And earth is filled with light;
With resurrection radiance
The very tomb is bright;
There's joy in heav'nly places
When o'er all earthly races
The dawn of mercy breaks.
3 Teach me with Thee to suffer,
With Thee to live and die,
In trial and temptation
On Thy help to rely.
To them alone who suffered
With Thee the palm is offered
When our last fight is won.
4 When in the morning watches
Of that last day of dread
Thou comest in Thy glory
To judge both quick and dead,
How sweet Thy promise spoken,
Thyself the living token,
That death shall be no more.

When O'er My Sins I Sorrow
Author: Justus Gesenius, 1601-73 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.6 Appears in 10 hymnals First Line: When o'er my sins I sorrow, Lord Lyrics: 1 When o'er my sins I sorrow,
Lord, I will look to you
And hence my comfort borrow
That you were slain for me.
Your precious blood was offered
For me, oh, most unworthy,
To take away my guilt.
2 Oh, what a marv'lous off'ring!
Behold, the Master spares
His servants, and their suff'ring
And grief for them he bears.
Our God comes down from heaven;
For me, his guilty creature,
He deigns as man to die.
3 My manifold transgression
Henceforth can harm me none
Since Jesus' bloody passion
For me God's grace has won.
His blood my debt has canceled;
Of hell and all its torments
I am no more afraid.
4 Therefore I will forever
Give thanks continually,
O Jesus, loving Savior,
For what you did for me.
I'll spend my breath in praises
For your sad cry, your suff'rings,
Your wounds, your guiltless death. Topics: Lent; Lent Used With Tune: HERR CHRIST, DER EINIG GOTTS SOHN Text Sources: Translation composite
When O'er My Sins I Sorrow
As The Rose Shall Blossom Here
Author: S. D. Rodholm; N. F. S. Grundtvig Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 As the rose shall blossom here
All the desert places
Blossom when the golden year
Shines on saddened faces.
Glory crowns proud Lebanon,
Carmel's height has splendor won.
Flowers bloom in Sharon.
2 Quiet ye the trembling hands,
All the feeble strengthen,
Loosen all enslaving bands,
God our days would lengthen.
Gleams the sword, so keen and swift,
Death to foes, to friends a gift;
Comes the Lord to save you.
3 Sight He gives to all the blind,
Ne'er their eyes shall darken;
Ev'ry mute his voice shall find,
All the deaf shall harken;
Like the hart the lame shall leap,
Zion nevermore shall weep.
Peace shall reign forever.
4 Thus Isaiah prophesied
In the days of sadness.
Ages passed, then far and wide
Spread the news of gladness:
Christ is here, with us He stands,
Changing with His loving hands
Desert wastes to Eden.
5 Hail our King at God's right hand,
Jesus and His Spirit
Lead us to the promised land
We by faith inherit.
And tho' death be drawing near,
Words of life the deaf shall hear;
Mutes shall sing His praises. Topics: Carols and Spiritual Songs Advent Used With Tune: ROSA
