my great Redeemer's praise,
the glories of my God and King,
the triumphs of his grace.
2 Jesus! the name that charms our fears,
that bids our sorrows cease,
'tis music in the sinner's ears,
'tis life and health and peace.
3 He breaks the power of canceled sin,
he sets the prisoner free;
his blood can make the foulest clean;
his blood availed for me.
4 He speaks, and listening to his voice,
new life the dead receive;
the mournful, broken hearts rejoice;
the humble poor believe.
5 My gracious Master and my God,
assist me to proclaim,
to spread through all the earth abroad
the honors of thy name. Scripture: Psalm 35:28 Used With Tune: AZMON

And Jesus is the Child.
[2 The Lord, the Highest God,
Calls him his only Son;
He bids Him rule the Lands abroad,
And gives him David's Throne.
3 O'er Jacob shall he reign
With a peculiar Sway;
The Nations shall his Grace obtain,
His Kingdom ne'er decay.]
4 To bring the glorious News,
A heavenly Form appears;
He tells the Shepherds of their Joys,
And banishes their Fears.
5 Go, humble Swains, said he,
To David's City fly,
The promis'd Infant, born To day
Doth in a Manger lie.
6 With Looks and Hearts serene,
Go visit Christ your King;
And strait a flaming Troop was seen:
The Shepherds heard them sing.

Good Will to Men, to Angels Joy,
At the Redeemer's Birth.

Let Saints employ their Tongues;
With the Celestial Host we join,
And loud repeat their Songs.

And heav'nly Peace on Earth,
Good Will to Men, to Angels Joy,
At our Redeemer's Birth.] Scripture: Luke 1:30-38

Praise for the Incarnation
Appears in 73 hymnals Topics: Incarnation of Christ; Incarnation of Christ First Line: Sweeter sounds than music knows Lyrics: 1 Sweeter sounds than music knows,
Charm me in Emmanuel's name;
All her hopes my spirit owes
To his birth, and cross, and shame.
2 When he came the angles sung,
"Glory be to God on high;"
Lord, unloose my stamm'ring tongue,
Who shall louder sing than I?
3 Did the LORD a man become,
That he might the law fulfil,
Bleed and suffer in my room,
Canst thou then my tongue, be still?
4 No, I must my praises bring,
Though they worthless are and weak;
For, should I refuse to sing,
Sure the very stones would speak.
5 O my Saviour, Shield and Sun,
Shepherd, Brother, husband, Friend,
Ev'ry precious name in one,
I will love thee without end.
