O love beyond all telling, That led thee to embrace, In love all love excelling, Our lost and fallen race! 3.Rejoice, then, ye sad-hearted, Who sit in deepest gloom, Who mourn o'er joys departed And tremble at your doom. Despair not, he is near you, Yea, standing at the door, Who best can help and cheer you And bids you weep no more. 4 Sin's debt, that fearful burden, Let not your soul distress; Your guilt the Lord will pardon And cover by his grace. He comes, for men procuring The peace of sin forgiv'n, For all God's sons securing Their heritage in heav'n. Amen. Scripture: Matthew 25:6 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. THEODULPH

"Christ is born," their choirs are singing Till the air Ev'rywhere Now with joy is ringing. 2 Forth today the Conqueror goeth, Who the foe, Sin and woe, Death and hell, o'erthroweth. God is man, man to deliver; His dear Son Now is one With our blood forever. 3 Shall we still dread God's displeasure, Who, to save, Freely gave His most cherished Treasure? To redeem us, he hath given His own Son From the throne Of his might in heaven. 4 He becomes the Lamb that taketh Sin away And for aye Full atonement maketh. For our life his own he tenders; And our race, By his grace, Meet for glory renders. 5 Hark! a voice from yonder manger, Soft and sweet, Doth entreat: "Flee from woe and danger, Brethren, from all ills that grieve you You are freed; All you need I will surely give you." 6 Come, then, banish all your sadness, One and all, Great and small; Come with songs of gladness. Love him who with love is glowing; Hail the star, Near and far Light and joy bestowing. 7 Dearest Lord, thee will I cherish. Though my breath Fail in death, Yet I shall not perish, But with thee abide for ever There on high, In that joy Which can vanish never. Amen.

And love beyond degree! 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut his glories in, When Christ, the mighty Maker, died For man the creature's sin. 4 Thus might I hide my blushing face While his dear cross appears; Dissolve my heart in thankfulness, And melt mine eyes in tears. 5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay The debt of love I owe; Here, Lord, I give myself away, 'Tis all that I can do.
