Open Now Thy Gates of Beauty
Author: Benjamin Schmolck; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 151 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 3:8 Lyrics: 1 Open now thy gates of beauty;
Zion, let me enter there,
where my soul in joyful duty
waits for him who answers prayer;
O how blessed is this place,
filled with solace, light, and grace!
2 Here, my God, I come before thee,
come thou also down to me;
where we find thee and adore thee,
there a heav'n on earth must be;
to my heart O enter thou,
let it be thy temple now!
3 Here thy praise is gladly chanted;
here thy seed is duly sown;
let my soul, where it is planted,
bring forth precious sheaves alone,
so that all I hear may be
fruitful unto life in me.
4 Thou my faith increase and quicken;
let me keep thy gift divine;
howsoe'er temptations thicken,
may thy word still o'er me shine
ss my guiding star through life,
as my comfort in all strife.
5 Speak, O God, and I will hear thee;
let thy will be done indeed;
may I undisturbed draw near thee
while thou dost thy people feed;
here of live the fountain flows;
here is balm for all our woes.

Author: Edward Caswall (1814-1878) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 133 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 3:1-12 Lyrics: 1 Hark, a herald voice is sounding:
"Christ is nigh," it seems to say.
"Cast away the dreams of darkness,
O ye children of the day!"

let the earth-bound soul arise;
Christ, our sun, all sloth dispelling,
shines upon the morning skies.

comes with pardon down from heaven;
let us all, with deep repentance,
pray that we may be forgiven,
4 that when next he comes with glory,
and the world is wrapped in fear,
with his mercy he may shield us,
and with words of love draw near.
5 Honour, glory, might, and blessing
to the Father and the Son,
with the everlasting Spirit,
while eternal ages run. Topics: Advent; John, the Baptist; Repentance Used With Tune: MERTON Text Sources: Latin (10th cent.)
