Never in all human story
Author: Joseph Pittman, 1842-1930 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Christmas Eve; Jesus Christ Incarnation; Jesus Christ Kingship; Peace of the World; Reconciliation; Salvation Lyrics: 1 Never in all human story
was a sight so wondrous seen,
Jesus Christ, the King of Glory,
cradled in a manger mean,
angel heralds in the sky,
lowly shepherds kneeling by.
2 Then the lamp of life was lighted,
brighter than the rising sun;
then were heaven and earth united,
peace of God on earth begun,
peace the troubled world to fill,
peace to those of holy will.
3 Prince of Peace! Your way before you
lies through nameless grief and pain:
death's dark shadow ever o'er you,
but it leads to highest reign:
glory that could never be,
but by way of Calvary. Scripture: Isaiah 9:2-7 Used With Tune: BETHLEHEM

Veni redemtor Gentium
Author: Ambrosius Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Advent and Incarnation of Jesus Christ Lyrics: 1 Veni redemtor Gentium
ostende partum virginis;
miretur omne seculum,
talis partus decet Deum.
2 Non ex virili semine,
sed mystico spiramine,
verbum Dei factum est caro,
fructusque ventris floruit.
2 Alvus tumescit virginis,
claustra pudoris permanent,
Vexilla virtutum micant,
versatur in templo Deus.
4 Procedens de thalamo suo,
pudoris aula regia,
geminae Gigas substantiae,
alacris ut currat viam.
5 Egressus ejus a patre,
regressus ejus ad patrem,
excursus usque ad inferos,
recusus ad sedem Dei.
6 Aequalis aeterno patri,
carnis trophaeo accingere,
infirmanostri corporis
virtute firmans perpetim.
7 Praesepe jam fulget tuum,
lumenque nox spirat novum,
quod nulla nox interpolet
fideque jugi luceat.
8 doe patri sit gloria,
ejusque soli filio,
com Spiritu prarcleto,
et nunc et in perpetuum.
amen.
Veni redemtor Gentium

Joyful Is the Dark
Author: Brian Wren Meter: 5.5.10.6.5.10 Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Creation; Darkness and Light; God Love of; God Mystery and Holiness of; Incarnation; Jesus Christ Birth of; Jesus Christ Death of; Mary, Mother of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Joyful is the dark,
holy, hidden God,
rolling cloud of night beyond all naming,
majesty in darkness,
energy of love,
Word in flesh, the mystery proclaiming.
2 Joyful is the dark
Spirit of the deep,
winging wildly o’er the world’s creation,
silken sheen of midnight
plumage black and bright,
swooping with the beauty of a raven.
3 Joyful is the dark,
shadowed stable floor;
angels flicker, God on earth confessing,
as with exultation,
Mary, giving birth,
hails the infant cry of need and blessing.
4 Joyful is the dark
coolness of the tomb,
waiting for the wonder of the morning.
Never was that midnight
touched by dread and gloom:
darkness was the cradle of the dawning.
5 Joyful is the dark
depth of love divine,
roaring, looming thundercloud of glory,
holy, haunting beauty,
living, loving God.
Hallelujah! Sing and tell the story! Scripture: Genesis 1:1-2 Used With Tune: JOYFUL DARK Text Sources: Bring Many Names

Ye saints, proclaim abroad
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 40 hymnals Topics: Christ Incarnation; The birth of Christ joy to the world Lyrics: 1 Ye saints, proclaim abroad
The honours of your king;
To Jesus your incarnate God,
Your songs of praises sing.
2 Not angels round the throne
Of majesty above,
Are half so much oblig'd as we,
To our Immanuel's love.
3 They never sunk so low,
They are not rais'd so high;
They never knew such depths of wo,
Such heights of majesty.
4 The Saviour did not join
Their nature to his own;
For them he shed no blood divine,
Nor breath'd a single groan.
5 May we with angels vie,
The Saviour to adore;
Our debts are greater far than theirs,
O be our praises more! Scripture: Hebrews 2:16
Ye saints, proclaim abroad
