O How Shall We Receive You

Author: Arthur Tozer Russell; Paul Gerhardt Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 95 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Advent Lyrics: 1 O how shall we receive you, How meet you on your way, Blest hope of every nation, Our soul's delight and stay? O Jesus, Jesus, give us Now by your own pure light To know whate'er is pleasing And welcome in your sight. 2 Your Zion palms is spreading, And branches fresh and fair; Our souls, to praise awaking, An anthem shall prepare. Unending thanks and praises From our glad hearts shall spring; And to your name the service Of all our powers we bring. 3 Love caused your incarnation, Love blessed humanity. Your thirst for our salvation Procured our liberty. O love beyond all telling, That led you to embrace, In love all love excelling, Our lost and troubled race. 4 You came, O Lord, with gladness, In mercy and goodwill, To bring an end to sadness And bid our fears be still. We welcome you, our Savior; Come, gather us to you, That in your light eternal Our joyous home we'll view. Amen. Scripture: John 1:12 Used With Tune: ST. THEODULPH

Speak ye to Jerusalem of the peace that waits for them; tell her that her sins I cover, and her warfare now is over. 2 Hark, the voice of one that crieth in the desert far and near, bidding all to true repentance since the kingdom now is here. O that warning cry obey! Now prepare for God a way; let the valleys rise to meet Him, and the hills bow down to greet Him. 3 Make ye straight what long was crooked, make the rougher places plain; let your hearts be true and humble, as befits His holy reign. For the glory of the Lord now o'er earth is shed abroad; and all flesh shall see the token that His word is never broken. Scripture: Isaiah 40:1-5 Used With Tune: PSALM 42

O God of Every Nation

Author: William W. Reid, Jr. Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Advent Lyrics: 1 O God of every nation, Of every race and land, Redeem the whole creation With your almighty hand; Where hate and fear divide us, And bitter threats are hurled, In love and mercy guide us And heal our strife-torn world. 2 From search for wealth and power And scorn of truth and right, From trust in bombs that shower Destruction through the night, From pride of race and nation And blindness to your way, Deliver every nation, Eternal God, we pray. 3 Lord, strengthen all who labor That men may find release From fear of rattling saber, From dread of war's increase; When hope and courage falter, Your still small voice be heard; With faith that none can alter, Your servants undergird. 4 Keep bright in us the vision Of days when war shall cease, When hatred and division Give way to love and peace, Till dawns the morning glorious When brotherhood shall reign, And Christ shall rule victorious O'er all the world's domain. Amen. Scripture: Micah 4:1-4 Used With Tune: LLANGLOFFAN
