How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
Author: J. Newton (1725-1807) Appears in 1,660 hymnals Topics: Advent 4 The Annunciation Lyrics: 1 How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
in a believer's ear!
it soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds,
and drives away our fear.
2 It makes the wounded spirit whole,
and calms the troubled breast;
it satisfies the hungry soul,
and gives the weary rest.
3 Dear name, the rock on which I build,
my shield and hiding-place;
my never-failing treasury, filled
with boundless stores of grace!
4 Jesus, my shepherd, guardian, friend,
my prophet, priest and king,
my Lord, my life, my way, my end —
accept the praise I bring.
5 Weak is the effort of my heart,
and cold my warmest thought;
but when I see you as you are,
I'll praise you as I ought.
6 Till then I would your love proclaim
with every fleeting breath;
and may the music of your name
refresh my soul in death. Used With Tune: ST. PETER

Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence (Lorsque les mortels, en silence frémiront)
Author: Gerard Moultrie; G. de Lioncourt Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 181 hymnals Topics: Advent 4 Year C Lyrics: 1 Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
and with awe and reverence stand;
ponder nothing earthly minded,
for with blessing in his hand
Christ our God to us approacheth
our full homage to demand.
2 King of kings, yet born of Mary,
as of old on earth he stood,
Lord of lords, in human vesture,
in the body and the blood,
he will give to all the faithful
his own self for heavenly food.
3 Rank on rank the host of heaven
spreads its vanguard on the way.
as the Light of light descendeth
from the realms of endless day,
that the powers of hell may vanish
as the darkness clears away.
4 At his feet the six-winged seraph;
cherubim with sleepless eye
veil their faces to the presence,
as with ceaseless voice they cry,
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
hallelujah, Lord Most High! Used With Tune: PICARDY Text Sources: Liturgy of St. James

Store Gud og Frelsermand
Author: Kingo Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Advent 4 Lyrics: 1 Store Gud og Frelsermand,
Som i din Fornedringsstand
Bar din Guddoms Æt i Løn,
Vandred som en Menn'skens Søn,
Oplad ved din Aand, dit Ord
Vore Hjerter, at vi tror
Synet af Guds Søn paa Jord!
2 Døberen, o store Gud,
Som gik før iveien ud
For at vise Verden dig,
Han saa høit undskylder sig,
Siger, han er kun er Røst,
Som mod Syndens Saar og Brøst
Prædiker al Verdens Trøst.
3 Han ei værdig kjender sig,
Dine Sko at løse dig;
Hvad er da jeg, Adams Barn,
Skygge, Støv og Jord og Skarn;
Jeg er ikke værd at staa
Paa den Jord, du traadte paa,
Eller i din Forgaard gaa.
4 Søde Jesus, Davids Rod,
Jeg vil dig med Bøn og Bod
Rede og berede Sted
I min Sjæl og Hjerte med;
Tag det hen og dan det bedst,
Kom derind og vær min Gjæst,
Giv en salig Julefest.
Store Gud og Frelsermand
