Listen To Those Happy Voices

Author: Matthias Loy Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Listen to those happy voices Of the radiant angel throng! How the earth and sky rejoices! All the air is full of song! Hallelujah! blissful morn! Hallelujah! Christ is born! 2 Hear ye not the bright robed angel Cheering shepherds in the field— Telling them the sweet evangel That the woes of man are healed? Hear ye not the angel say: "Fear ye not, be glad today"? 3 Bid the fiend of hell defiance! Conquered now is every foe! In His name have full reliance, Who hath borne our sin and woe! Hallelujah—death is braved! Hallelujah—we are saved! 4 Should we not with songs of gladness Glory give to God for aye? Why be bowed with grief and sadness When our sins are borne away? Praise Him—with the angels vie— Glory be to God on high! 5 Swell, ye saints, the blissful chorus, Roll it onward like a sea! As the angels, hovering o’er us, Still repeat the melody. Hear ye not the angel say: "Fear ye not, be glad today"? 6 Gladly we repeat the story— Vie with angels while they sing: "Be to God immortal glory, Glory to the new-born King!" Hallelujah, blissful morn! Hallelujah, Christ is born! Used With Tune: UNSER HERRSCHER Text Sources: Tr.: The Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal (Columbus: Ohio Synodical Printing House, 1880)

All Authority and Power

Author: Christopher Idle Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All authority and power, every status and domain, now belongs to one who suffered our redemption to obtain; angels, demons, kings and rulers, over all shall Jesus reign! 2 All the nations owe him worship, every tongue shall call him Lord; how are they to call upon him if his name they have not heard? Therefore go and make disciples, preach his gospel, spread his Word. 3 All the clear commands of Jesus must be heeded and obeyed; full provision for our weakness in his teaching he has made; in the Gospel words and symbols saving truth to us conveyed. 4 All the time he will be with us, always, to the end of days; with his own believing people who keep steadfast in his ways; God the Father, Son and Spirit, bless us, and to God be praise!

All Ye Gentile Lands Awake!

Author: Johann Rist; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: All ye Gentile lands awake Lyrics: 1. All ye Gentile lands awake! Thou, O Salem, rise and shine! See the day-spring o’er you break, Heralding a morn divine, Telling, God hath called to mind Those who long in darkness pined. 2. Lo! the shadows flee away, For our Light is come at length, Brighter than all earthly day, Source of being, life and strength! Whoso on this Light would gaze Must forsake all evil ways. 3. Ah how blindly did we stray Ere shone forth this glorious Sun, Seeking each his separate way, Leaving Heaven, unsought, unwon; All our looks were earthward bent, All our strength on earth was spent. 4. Earthly were our thoughts and low, In the toils of folly caught, Tossed of Satan to and fro, Counting goodness all for naught; By the world and flesh deceived, Heaven’s true joys we disbelieved. 5. Then were hidden from our eyes All the law and grace of God; Rich and poor, the fools and wise, Wanting light to find the road Leading to the heavenly life, Wandered lost in care and strife. 6. But the glory of the Lord Hath arisen on us today; We have seen the light outpoured That must surely drive away All things that to night belong, All the sad earth’s woe and wrong. 7. Thy arising, Lord, shall fill All my thoughts in sorrow’s hour; Thy arising, Lord, shall still All my dread of death’s dark power; Through my smiles and through my tears Still Thy light, O Lord, appears. 8. Let me, Lord in peace depart From this evil world to Thee; Where Thyself sole Brightness art, Thou hast kept a place for me: In the shining city there Crowns of light Thy saints shall wear.

Author: Christopher Idle Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: Since our great high priest, Christ Jesus Lyrics: 1 Since our great high priest, Christ Jesus, bears the name above all names, reigning Son of God, surpassing other titles, powers, and claims; since to heaven our Lord has passed, let us hold our witness fast! 2 Since we have a priest who suffered, knowing weakness, tears, and pain; who, like us, was tried and tempted; unlike us, without a stain; since he shared our lowly place, let us boldly seek his grace! 3 Sacrifice and suffering over, now he sits at God's right hand, crowned with praise, no more an outcast, his preeminence long planned; such a great high priest we have, strong to help, supreme to save! 4 Love's example, hope's attraction, faith's beginning and its end, pioneer of our salvation, mighty advocate and friend: Jesus, now in glory raised, our ascended Lord, be praised!
