O little town of Bethlehem

Author: Phillips Brooks, 1835-1893 Hymnal: The Hymnal 1982 #78 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D 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 men on earth. 3. How silently, how silently, the wondrous Gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of his 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. Where children pure and happy pray to the blessed Child, where misery cries out to thee, Son of the mother mild; where charity stand watching and faith holds wide the door, the dark night wakes, the glory breaks, and Christmas comes once more. 5. 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: FOREST GREEN

O little town of Bethlehem

Author: P. Brooks (1835-1893) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #88a (1987) Lyrics: 1 O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see you lie! Above your deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by: yet in your dark streets shining is everlasting light; the hopes and fears of all the years are met in you 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 blessings of his 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.

Song of Zechariah (Blessed Be the God of Israel)

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Hymnal: Sing! A New Creation #104 (2002) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: Blessed be the God of Israel who comes to set us free Lyrics: 1 Blessed be the God of Israel who comes to set us free and raises up new hope for us: a branch from David’s tree. So have the prophets long declared that with a mighty arm God would turn back our enemies and all who wish us harm. 2 With promised mercy will God still the covenant recall, the oath once sworn to Abraham, from foes to save us all, that we might worship without fear and offer lives of praise, in holiness and righteousness to serve God all our days. 3 My child, as prophet of the Lord you will prepare the way, to tell God’s people they are saved from sin’s eternal sway. Then shall God’s mercy from on high shine forth and never cease to drive away the gloom of death and lead us into peace.

I Sing the Almighty Power of God

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #119 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 I sing th'almighty pow'r of God that made the mountains rise, that spread the flowing seas abroad, and built the lofty skies. I sing the wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day; the moon shines full at his command and all the stars obey. 2 I sing the goodness of the Lord that filled the earth with food; he formed the creatures with his word, and then pronounced them good. Lord, how your wonders are displayed where'er I turn mine eye, if I survey the ground I tread or gaze upon the sky! 3 There's not a plant or flow'r below but makes your glories known; and clouds arise and tempests blow, by order from your throne; while all that borrows life from you is ever in your care, and everywhere that man can be, you, God, are present there.
