O for a thousand tongues to sing

Author: C. Wesley (1707-1788) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #219a (1987) Topics: Advent 4 The Annunciation Lyrics: 1 O for a thousand tongues to sing 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 and bids our sorrows cease; this music in the sinner's ears, is life and health and peace. 3 He breaks the power of cancelled 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 Hear him, you deaf! his praise, you dumb your loosened tongues employ; you blind, now see your saviour come, and leap, you lame, for joy! 6 My gracious Master and my God, assist me to proclaim and spread through all the earth abroad the honours of your name.

O Little Town of Bethlehem

Author: Phillips Brooks Hymnal: Voices United #64 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6.7.6.8.6 Topics: Advent 4 Year A; Advent 4 Year C Lyrics: 1 O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie! Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by; yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting light; the hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight. 2 For Christ is born of Mary; and gathered all above, while mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wondering love. O morning stars, together proclaim the holy birth, and praises sing to God the King, and peace to all on earth. 3 How silently, how silently, the wondrous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts the blessed gift of heaven. No ear may hear his coming; but in this world of sin, where meek souls will receive him, still the dear Christ enters in. 4 O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray; cast out our sin, and enter in; be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel. Languages: English Tune Title: ST LOUIS
