It Came upon the Midnight Clear

Author: Edmund H. Sears, 1810-76 Hymnal: Lutheran Service Book #366 (2006) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: Genesis 11:9 Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold: "Peace on the earth, goodwill to all, From heav'n's all-gracious king." The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels sing. 2 Still through the cloven skies they come With peaceful wings unfurled, And still their heav'nly music floats O'er all the weary world. Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on hov'ring wing, And ever o'er its babel sounds The blessed angels sing. 3 All you, beneath your heavy load, By care and guilt bent low, Who toil along a dreary way With painful steps and slow: Look up, for golden is the hour, Come swiftly on the wing, The Prince was born to bring you peace; Of Him the angels sing. 4 For lo, the days have come to pass By prophets seen of old, When down into the circling years Came Christ as was foretold. His word of peace shall to the earth God's ancient promise bring, And all who take this gift will hear The song the angels sing. Topics: Society Languages: English Tune Title: CAROL

All My Hope on God Is Founded

Author: Robert Seymour Bridges Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #156 (1985) Meter: 8.7.8.7.3.3.7 Scripture: Genesis 11:1 Lyrics: 1 All my hope on God is founded; he doth still my trust renew. Me through change and chance he guideth, only good and only true. God unknown, he alone calls my heart to be his own. 2 Human pride and earthly glory, sword and crown betray his trust. What with care and toil we fashion, tower and temple, fall to dust. But God's power, hour by hour, is my temple and my tower. 3 God's great goodness aye endureth; deep his wisdom, passing thought. Splendor, light, and life attend him, beauty springeth out of nought. Evermore from his store newborn worlds rise and adore. 4 Daily doth th'almighty Giver bounteous gifts on us bestow; his desire our soul delighteth; pleasure leads us where we go. Love doth stand at his hand; joy doth wait on his command. 5 Still from earth to God eternal sacrifice of praise be done, high above all praises praising for the gift of Christ his Son. Christ doth call one and all: ye who follow shall not fall. Languages: English Tune Title: MEINE HOFFNUNG
