Representative Text

1 Rise, arise! Rise, arise!
Christians, rise to greet your King.
Open wide the gates before him;
Let the glad hosannas ring;
Haste to worship and adore him.
Hark! The watchman on the mountain cries:
Rise, arise! Rise, arise!

2 Oh, rejoice! Oh, rejoice!
Christ has come as long fortold.
The Messiah long-expected,
The incarnate Word behold!
Though by earthly kings rejected,
Hail him Lord of all with mighty voice.
Oh, rejoice! Oh, rejoice!

3 Crown him King! Crown him King!
His exalted name confess.
From his heav'nly throne descending,
Jesus, Lord our righteousness,
Brings us joy and peace unending.
Oh, let heart and tongue his praises sing!
Crown him King! Crown him King!

Anna Hoppe was born on May 7, 1889 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She left school after the eighth grade and worked as a stenographer. She began writing patriotic verses when she was very young and by the age of 25 she was writing spiritual poetry. After some of her poems appeared in the Northwestern Lutheran, a periodical of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod, they came to the attention of Dr. Adolf Hult of Augustana Seminary, Rock Island, Illinois. He influenced her to write her Songs for the Church Year (1928). Several hymnals include her work, which was usually set to traditional chorale melodies, although she also made a number of translations. She died on August 2, 1941 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
