Immanuel, We Sing Thy Praise

Author: Paul Gerhardt; Ludolph E. Schlicht. 1714-1769 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2933 Meter: 8.8.8.8 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. Now fearlessly I come to Thee: From sin and grief O set me free! Turn wrath away, dread death destroy, And turn my sorrow into joy. 5. Thou art my head, my Lord divine: I am Thy member, wholly Thine; And by Thy Spirit’s gracious power Will seek to serve Thee evermore. Languages: English Tune Title: GERMANY

Immanuel we sing thy praise

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #XVIII (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Immanuel we sing thy praise, Thou prince of life, thou spring of grace: We worship thee with one accord, Thou virgin son, thou Lord of Lords. 2 We join with heav'nly hosts to be, Employ'd with those who worship thee; Since long it hath been our request, That thou should'st come O wellcome guest. 3 How often since the world was made, Have many for thy comming pray'd! The fathers and the Prophets were, Desirious that thou should'st appear. 4 With ardent zeal for thee did look That king and shepherd of thy flock, That man who so well pleased thee, Who worship'd thee with Psaltery. 5 O may the Lord from Zion come To break our bands and take us home! May we relief by him obtain! That Jacob may rejoice again. 6 Now thou art come, as we have pray'd, And in a stall and manger laid; The world by thee, is cloath'd and fed, Thou hast not where to lay thy head. 7 Thy dwellings are of meanest kind. Yet all the heavens they are thine; A human breast affords thee food, Tho' Angels worship thee their God. 8 The seas they bound at thy commands And thou art deck'd with swathing bands; Thou art our God, yet deign'st to be Expos'd to want and poverty. 9 Thou art the fount of ev'ry bliss, And het expos'd to great distress: All nations help, art thou alone, Thou seekest help but findest none. 10 We praise thee, O thou ev'r bless'd! Our praises are to thee address'd; If Angels join to praise thy name, Sure we are bound to do the same. Topics: Christmas Languages: English

Hallelujah! 2 With all Thy saints Thee, Lord, we sing, Praise, honor, thanks to Thee we bring, That Thou, O long-expected Guest, Hast come at last to make us blest! Hallelujah! 3 For Thee, since first the world was made, So many hearts have watched and prayed; The patriarchs' and prophets' throng For Thee have hoped and waited long. Hallelujah! 4 Above all others longed for Thee Thy people's king and shepherd, he With whom Thou, Lord, so well wert pleased, When with His harp Thy name he praised. Hallelujah! 5 Ah, that the Saviour soon would come To break our bonds and lead us home! Ah, that He might salvation bring, Then Jacob would rejoice and sing. Hallelujah! 6 Now Thou art here, Thou Ever Blest! In lowly manger dost Thou rest; Who makest all things great, art small; Naked Thyself, who clothest all. Hallelujah! 7 All heavens are Thine, yet Thou dost come To sojourn in a stranger's home; A mother's milk dost not despise, Who art the joy of angel's eyes. Hallelujah! 8 Thou hast set bounds to earth and sea, Yet swaddling-bands encircle Thee; Thou'rt God--a bed of straw Thou hast; Thou'rt man--yet art the First and Last. Hallelujah! 9 From Thee above all gladness flows, Yet Thou must bear such bitter woes; The Gentiles' Light and Hope Thou art, Yet findest none to soothe Thy heart. Hallelujah! 10 The sweetest Friend of man Thou art, Yet many hate Thee in their heart; By Herod's heart Thou art abhorred, Yet Thou art our Salvation, Lord. Hallelujah! 11 But I, Thy humblest servant, may Confess my love and freely say, I love Thee truly, but I would That I might love Thee as I should. Hallelujah. 12 I have the will, the power is weak, Yet, Lord, my humble offering take And graciously the love receive Which my poor heart to Thee can give. Hallelujah! 13 Thou to be weak dost not disdain, Dost choose the things the world deems vain, Art poor and needy, and content To suffer poverty and want. Hallelujah! 14 Thou sleepest on the lap of earth; The manger where Thou at Thy birth Wast laid to rest, the hay, the stall Were mean and miserable all. Hallelujah! 15 And therefore doth my courage rise, Me also Thou wilt not despise; O dearest Lord, Thy tender grace Fills me with hope and happiness. Hallelujah! 16 Although I've passed in sin my days, And wandered far from wisdom's ways, Yet therefore Thou to earth hast come, To bring the wand'ring sinner home. Hallelujah! 17 Had I no load of sin to bear, Thy grace, O Lord, I could not share; In vain had'st Thou been born for me, If from God's wrath I had been free. Hallelujah! 18 Now fearlessly I come to Thee, From every grief Thou mak'st me free; Thou bear'st the wrath, dost death destroy, And turnest sorrow into joy. Hallelujah! 19 Thou art my Head, my Lord divine, I am Thy member, wholly Thine, And by Thy Spirit's gracious power Will seek to serve Thee evermore. Hallelujah! 20 I'll sing loud hallelujahs here With joyful spirit year by year; And in Thy courts of joy above Forever I will sing Thy love. Hallelujah! Amen.
