Author: John Samuel Bewley Monsell Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 113 hymnals Topics: Advent, First Sunday Lyrics: 1 O'er the distant mountains breaking, Comes the redd'ning dawn of day; Rise, my soul, from sleep awaking, Rise, and sing, and watch, and pray; 'Tis thy Saviour, On His bright returning way. 2 Come, Thou Long-expected, weary Waits my anxious soul for Thee, Life is dark, and earth is dreary, Where Thy light I do not see; O my Saviour, When wilt Thou return to me? 3 Nearer is my soul's salvation, Spent the night, the day at hand; Keep me, in my lowly station, Watching for Thee, till I stand, O my Saviour, In Thy bright, Thy promised land, 4 With my lamp well trimmed and burning, Swift to hear and slow to roam, Watching for Thy glad returning To restore me to my home-- Come, my Saviour, Thou hast promised, quickly come! Amen. Scripture: Matthew 25:1-13 Used With Tune: ST. RAPHAEL

Hail to the Lord's Anointed

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 853 hymnals Topics: liturgical Scripture Songs Lyrics: 1. Hail to the Lord's Anointed, great David's greater Son! Hail in the time appointed, his reign on earth begun! He comes to break oppression, to set the captive free; to take away transgression, and rule in equity. 2. He comes with succor speedy to those who suffer wrong; to help the poor and needy, and bid the weak be strong; to give them songs for sighing, their darkness turn to light, whose souls, condemned and dying, are precious in his sight. 3. He shall come down like showers upon the fruitful earth; love, joy, and hope, like flowers, spring in his path to birth. Before him on the mountains, shall peace, the herald, go, and righteousness, in fountains, from hill to valley flow. 4. To him shall prayer unceasing and daily vows ascend; his kingdom still increasing, a kingdom without end. The tide of time shall never his covenant remove; his name shall stand forever; that name to us is love. The United Methodist Hymnal

Rejoice, all ye believers

Author: Jane Borthwick; Laurentius Laurenti Meter: 7.6 Appears in 332 hymnals Topics: Advent, First Sunday Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, all ye believers, And let your lights appear! The evening is advancing, And darker night is near. The Bridegroom is arising, And soon He draweth nigh, Up! pray and watch, and wrestle-- At midnight comes the cry! 2 The watchers on the mountain Proclaim the Bridegroom near; Go meet Him as He cometh, With hallelujahs clear. The marriage feast is waiting, The gates wide-open stand; Up, up, ye heirs of glory; The Bridegroom is at hand! 3 Ye saints, who here in patience Your cross and sufferings bore, Shall live and reign for ever, When sorrow is no more. Around the throne of glory The Lamb ye shall behold, In triumph cast before Him Your diadems of gold! 4 Our Hope and Expectation, O Jesus, now appear; Arise, Thou Sun so longed for, O'er this benighted sphere! With hearts and hands uplifted, We plead, O Lord, to see The day of earth’s redemption, That brings us unto Thee! Used With Tune: ICH DANK' DIE LIEBER HERRE
