Lo, he comes with clouds descending

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788; John Cennick, 1718-1755; Martin Madan, 1726-1790 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #405 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Topics: Year B Advent 1 Lyrics: 1 Lo, he comes with clouds descending, once for favoured sinners slain; thousand thousand saints attending swell the triumph of his train. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Christ appears on earth to reign. 2 Ev'ry eye shall now behold him robed in dreadful majesty; we who set at naught and sold him, pierced and nailed him to the tree, deeply grieving, deeply grieving, deeply grieving, shall the true Messiah see. 3 Those dear tokens of his passion still his dazzling body bears, cause of endless exultation to his ransomed worshippers: with what rapture, with what rapture, with what rapture gaze we on those glorious scars! 4 Yea, amen, let all adore thee, high on thine eternal throne; Saviour, take the pow'r and glory, claim the kingdom for thine own: Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Thou shalt reign, and thou alone. Scripture: Mark 13:25-26 Languages: English Tune Title: HELMSLEY

Myers, 1843-1901 Hymnal: New English Praise #600 (2006) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: Advent 1 Lyrics: 1 Hark what a sound, and too divine for hearing, Stirs on the earth and trembles in the air! Is it the thunder of the Lord's appearing? Is it the music of his people's prayer? 2 Surely he cometh, and a thousand voices Shout to the saints, and to the deaf are dumb; Surely he cometh, and the earth rejoices, Glad in his coming who hath sworn: I come! 3 This hath he done, and shall we not adore him? This shall he do, and can we still despair? Come, let us quickly fling ourselves before him, Cast at his feet the burden of our care. 4 Through life and death, through sorrow and through sinning, He shall suffice me, for he hath sufficed: Christ is the end, for Christ was the beginning, Christ the beginning, for the end is Christ.

For the Healing of the Nations

Author: Fred Kaan Hymnal: Voices United #678 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Advent 1 Year A Lyrics: 1 For the healing of the nations, God, we pray with one accord; for a just and equal sharing of the things that earth affords. To a life of love in action help us rise and pledge our word. 2 Lead us forward into freedom, from despair your world release; that, redeemed from war and hatred, all may come and go in peace. Show us how through care and goodness fear will die and hope increase. 3 All that kills abundant living, let it from the earth be banned; pride of status, race or schooling, dogmas that obscure your plan. In our common quest for justice may we hallow life's brief span. 4 You, Creator God, have written your great name on humankind; for our growing in your likeness bring the life of Christ to mind, that by our response and service earth its destiny may find.

Author: Charles Kingsley, 1819-1974; Richard Proulx, b. 1937 Hymnal: Worship (3rd ed.) #687 (1986) Meter: Irregular Topics: Advent 1, Year C First Line: Now the day of the Lord is at hand, at hand Lyrics: 1 The day of the Lord is at hand, at hand; Its storms roll up the sky; The nations sleep starving on heaps of gold; All dreamers toss and sigh; The night is darkest before the morn; When the pain is greatest the child is born, For the day of the Lord is at hand, at hand, The day of the Lord is at hand. 2 Who would sigh for an old lost age of gold, While the Lord of all ages is here? True hearts then will leap at the trumpet of God, And those who can suffer can dare. Each age of gold was an iron age too, And the meekest of saints may find stern work to do For the day of the Lord at hand, at hand, In the day of the Lord at hand.
