Have ov'r sin the victory won.

Glorious is its light divine.
Let not sin o'ercloud this light;
Ever be our faith thus bright.

At the cross, her vigil keeping
Author: Edward Caswall (1814-1878) Meter: 8.8.7 D Appears in 133 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:34 Lyrics: 1 At the cross, her vigil keeping,
stood the mournful Mother weeping,
where he hung, the dying Lord;
for her soul, of joy bereavèd,
bowed with sorrow, deeply grievèd,
felt the sharp and piercing sword.
2 Who, on Christ's dear Mother gazing,
pierced with anguish so amazing,
born of woman, would not weep?
Who, on Christ's dear Mother thinking,
such a cup of sorrow drinking,
would not share her sorrows deep?
3 For his people's sins chastisèd
she beheld her Son despisèd
scourged, and crowned with thorns entwined;
saw him then from judgment taken,
and in death by all forsaken,
till his spirit he resigned.
4 Jesus, may her deep devotion
stir in me the same emotion,
fount of love, Redeemer kind,
that my heart, fresh ardour gaining,
and a purer love attaining,
may with thee acceptance find. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnate - Passion and Death; Christian Year Good Friday; Mary Used With Tune: STABAT MATER Text Sources: 13th century

O Holy Night
Author: John S. Dwight, 19th C. Meter: Irregular Appears in 48 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:8-16 First Line: O holy night, the stars are brightly shining Lyrics: 1 O holy night, the stars are brightly shining,
it is the night of the dear Savior’s birth;
long lay the world in sin and error pining,
till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices,
for yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices!
O night divine! O night when Christ was born!
O night divine! O night, O night divine!
2 Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
with glowing hearts by his cradle we stand;
so led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
here came the wise men from Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,
in all our trials born to be our friend;
he knows our need, he guards us from all danger.
Behold your King; before him lowly bend!
Behold your King; before Him lowly bend!
3 Truly he taught us to love one another;
his law is love and his gospel is peace.
Chains shall he break, for the slave is our brother,
and in his name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raising,
let all within us praise his holy name.
Christ is the Lord! O praise His name forever!
His power and glory evermore proclaim!
His power and glory evermore proclaim!

When He came down to earth
Bethlehem saw His birth;
Ox and ass beside Him
From the cold would hide Him.
3 God's bright star, o'er His head,
Wise men three to Him led,
Kneeling low by His bed,
Lay their gifts before Him,
Praise Him and adore Him.
4 On this day angels sing;
With their song earth shall ring,
Praising Christ, heaven's King,
Born on earth to save us;
Peace and love He gave us.
