Immanuel, We Sing Thy Praise
Author: Paul Gerhardt Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 34 hymnals Topics: Advent and Christmas Lyrics: 1 Immanuel, we sing Thy praise,
Thou Prince of Life, Thou Fount of Grace,
With all Thy saints, Thee, Lord, we sing;
Praise, honor, thanks, to Thee we bring.
2 E’er since the world began to be,
How many a heart hath longed for Thee!
And Thou, O long-expected Guest,
Hast come at last to make us blest!
3 Now art Thou here: we know Thee now;
In lowly manger liest Thou:
A Child, yet makest all things great;
Poor, yet the earth Thy robe of state.
4 Thus will I sing Thy praises here,
With joyful spirit year by year:
And in Thy courts of joy above
Forever will I sing Thy love.

Isaiah the prophet has written of old
Author: Joy F. Patterson (b. 1931) Meter: 11.8.11.8 D Appears in 14 hymnals Topics: Hymns and Spiritual Songs Advent and Christmas Lyrics: 1 Isaiah the prophet has written of old
how God's earthly kingdom shall come.
Instead of the thorn tree the fir tree shall grow;
the wolf shall lie down with the lamb.
The mountains and hills shall break forth into song,
The peoples be led forth in peace.
For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of God
as the waters cover the seas.
2 Yet nations still prey on the meek of the world.
And conflict turns parent from child.
Your people despoil all the sweetness of earth;
the brier and the thorn grow wild.
Lord, hasten to bring in your kingdom on earth,
when no one shall hurt or destroy.
When wisdom and justice shall reign in the land
and your people shall go forth in joy. Scripture: Isaiah 11:5-9 Used With Tune: SAMANTHRA

Jesus, Our Brother, Strong and Good
Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 38 hymnals Topics: Christmas; Jesus Christ Birth and Infancy; Year A Advent 4 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, our brother, strong and good,
was humbly born in a stable rude,
and the friendly beasts around him stood,
Jesus, our brother, strong and good.
2 “I,” said the donkey, shaggy and brown,
“I carried your mother uphill and down,
I carried your mother to Bethlehem town;
I,” said the donkey, shaggy and brown.
3 “I,” said the cow, all white and red,
“I gave you my manger for your bed,
I gave you hay to pillow your head;
I,” said the cow, all white and red.
4 “I,” said the sheep with curly horn,
“I gave you my wool for a blanket warm,
you wore my coat on Christmas morn;
I,” said the sheep with curly horn.
5 “I,” said the dove, from the rafters high,
“I cooed you to sleep that you should not cry,
we cooed you to sleep, my love and I;
I,” said the dove, from the rafters high.
6 Thus all the beasts, by some good spell,
in the stable dark were glad to tell
of the gifts they gave Emmanuel,
the gifts they gave Emmanuel. Scripture: Matthew 1:23 Used With Tune: ORIENTIS PARTIBUS Text Sources: French carol, 12th century, Trans. anon.
