Thou Didst Leave Thy Throne
Author: Emily E. S. Elliott Hymnal: Hymns of Faith #116 (1980) Topics: Christ Advent and Birth; Christ Advent and Birth First Line: Thou didst leave Thy throne and Thy kingly crown Refrain First Line: O come to my heart, Lord Jesus Lyrics: 1 Thou didst leave Thy throne and Thy kingly crown
When Thou camest to earth for me;
But in Bethlehem's home was there found no room
For Thy holy nativity:
Chorus:
O come to my heart, Lord Jesus!
There is room in my heart for Thee.
2 Heaven's arches rang when the angels sang,
Proclaiming Thy royal degree;
But in lowly birth Thou didst come to earth,
And in great humility: (Chorus)
3 The foxes found rest and the birds their nest,
In the shade of the forest tree;
But Thy couch was the sod, O Thou Son of God,
In the desert of Galilee: (Chorus)
4 Thou camest, O Lord, with the living Word
That should set Thy people free;
But with mocking scorn, and with crown of thorn,
They bore Thee to Calvary: (Chorus)
5 When the heavens shall ring, and the angels sing,
At Thy coming to victory,
Let Thy voice call me home, saying, "Yet there is room,
There is room at My side for thee:"
My heart shall rejoice, Lord Jesus!
When Thou comest and callest for me.
Amen. Scripture: Luke 2:7 Languages: English Tune Title: [Thou didst leave Thy throne and Thy kingly crown]

Born to give them second birth.

Forlorn and lonely is Thy birth,
That we may rise to heaven from earth.

To make us children of the light,
To make us, in the realms divine,
Like Thine own angels round Thee shine.

For this we tune our cheerful lays,
And sing our thanks in ceaseless praise.

O little town of Bethlehem
Author: Bishop Phillips Brooks Hymnal: The Hymnal #121 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6.7.6.8.6 Topics: Jesus Christ the Lord His Birth; Christ Birth and Infancy of 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 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.
Amen. Tune Title: ST. LOUIS

There's a Song in the Air
Author: Josiah G. Holland Hymnal: Hymns of Faith #121 (1980) Topics: Christ Advent and Birth; Christ Advent and Birth First Line: There's a song in the air! Lyrics: 1 There’s a song in the air!
There’s a star in the sky!
There’s a mother’s deep prayer,
And a baby’s low cry!
And the star rains its fire while the beautiful sing,
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King!
2 There’s a tumult of joy
O’er the wonderful birth,
For the virgin’s sweet Boy
Is the Lord of the earth.
Ay! the star rains its fire while the beautiful sing,
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King!
3 In the light of that star
Lie the ages impearled;
And that song from afar
Has swept over the world.
Every hearth is aflame, and the beautiful sing
In the homes of the nations that Jesus is King!
4 We rejoice in the light,
And we echo the song
That comes down thro' the night
From the heavenly throng.
Ay! we shout to the lovely evangel they bring,
And we greet in His cradle our Savior and King!

Brighter visions beam afar;
Seek the great Desire of nations;
Ye have seen His natal star:
Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King!

Watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
In His temple shall appear:
Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King!
