Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming

Author: Theodore Baker Meter: 7.6.7.6.6.7.6 Appears in 108 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming From tender stem hath sprung! Of Jesse's lineage coming As men of old have sung. It came, a flower bright, Amid the cold of winter When half-gone was the night. 2 Isaiah 'twas foretold it, The Rose I have in mind: With Mary we behold it, The virgin mother kind. To show God's love aright She bore to men a Savior When half-gone was the night. 3 This Flower, whose fragrance tender With sweetness fills the air, Dispels with glorious splendor The darkness everywhere. True man, yet very God, From sin and death He saves us And lightens every load Baptist Hymnal 2008 Text Sources: German, 15th cent.

Behold the Morning Star! 3 Look up, ye drooping hearts, to-day! The King is very near: O cast your griefs and fears away, For lo, your Help is here! For lo, your Help is here! 4 Hope on, O ye broken hearts, at last!

Wake, awake, for night is flying

Author: Miss Winkworth; Dr. Philip Nicolai Appears in 216 hymnals Topics: Advent, First Sunday Lyrics: 1 Wake, awake, for night is flying, The watchmen on the heights are crying; Awake, Jerusalem, at last! Midnight hears the welcome voices, And at the thrilling cry rejoices: Come forth, ye virgins, night is past! The Bridegroom comes, awake, Your lamps with gladness take; Hallelujah! And for His marriage feast prepare, For ye must go to meet Him there. 2 Zion hears the watchmen singing, And all her heart with joy is springing, She wakes, she rises from her gloom; For her Lord comes down all glorious, The strong in grace, in truth victorious, Her Star is risen, her Light is come! Ah come, Thou blessed Lord, O Jesus, Son of God, Hallelujah! We follow till the halls we see Where Thou hast bid us sup with Thee. 3 Now let all the heavens adore Thee, And men and angels sing before Thee, With harp and cymbal's clearest tone; Of one pearl each shining portal, Where we are with the choir immortal, Of angels round Thy dazzling throne; No eye has seen, nor ear Hath yet attained to hear What there is ours. But we rejoice, and sing to Thee Our hymns of joy eternally. Used With Tune: WACHET AUF, RUFT UNS DIE STIMME

Den Vei, der ind til Jesus gaar

Author: Kingo Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: First Sunday in Advent Lyrics: 1 Der Vei, der ind til Jesus gaar, Er salig at betræde; Man der al Trøstens Kundskab faar, Og Sjælen fuld af Glæde. Hans Ord og store Gjerninger De vise, han Messias er I Adams Kjød og Klæde. 2 De blinde se, de Halte gaa, Spedalske blive rene, De Døve høre, Død' opstaa Ved Jesu Ord alene; Det liflig' Evangelium Hos Fattige faar Sjæle-Rum, Det Ingen kan formene. 3 O søde Jesus, hvo der kan Forarge sig og støde Paa dig i din Fornedrings Stand, Hans Dom skal hannem møde. Jeg favner dig med Hjertens Tro, Mit Liv, min Lyst, mig Haab, min Ro, Du al min Sorg skal døde!

Hvorledes skal jeg møde

Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: First Sunday in Advent Lyrics: 1 Hvorledes skal jeg møde Og favne dig, min Skat, Du skjønne Morgenrøde Mod al min Jammers Nat? Min Jesu, sig, hvorledes Mit arme Hjerte skal Opsmykkes og beredes Dig til en Brude-Sal. 2 Dit Zion Palmer svinger Til evig Seiers Tegn Og Frydens Tone klinger I Naadens blide Egn; At brede ud din Ære Min Tunge er bered, Og alt mit Liv skal være Din Lov og Kjærlighed. 3 Hvor har du, milde Hjerte, Dog ingen Møie spart, At dæmpe al den Smerte, Som klemte mig saa hart; Da jeg i Mørkheds Sæde Og Satans Rige sad, Da kom du selv, min Glæde, Og gjorde mig saa glad. 4 Jeg laa i Baand og Fængsel, Du førte mig herud; Jeg stod i Spot og Trængsel Da tog du mig til Brud; For mig at saa ophøiet, Du bar min Skam og Brøst, Hvad du saa tungt har pløiet, Er mig en evig Høst. 5 Ei andet fra dit Rige Har draget dig herned, End din den uden Lige Bundløse Kjærlighed, Hvormed du vilde drage Al Verden til dit Bryst, Og vende al dens Plage Til Herlighed og Lyst. 6 Kom, bange Sjæl! at skrive Dig det i Hjertet ind, Lad denne Glæde blive Indtrykt i Sjæl og Sind, At Hjælpen er tilstede, At Jesus selv er her; Han vil dig trøste, glæde Og altid have kjær. 7 Du tør ei heller klage, At du ham ei kan faa, Han kommer selv at tage Dig ud af Jammers Vraa, Han kommer selv, han kommer, At dæmpe al din Ve, Og gjør en liflig Sommer Af al din Trængsels Sne. 8 Lad dig da ei forskrækkes Af dine Synders Tal, Din Jesus de tildækkes Og vist udslette skal; Han kommer fuld af Naade Til arme Synd'res Trøst, Vil dæmpe deres Vaade, Som føle deres Brøst. 9 Lad dig kun ikke true Af Satans List og Mord, Din Jesus kan ham kue, Det koster kun et Ord; Han gaar med dig i Striden Med Konge-magt og Mod, Al Magt mod hans er liden, Og daaner for hans Fod. 10 Han kommer og vil dømme, At give hver sin Del: De Onde Svovel-Strømme, De Gode Himlen hel; Ak kom, vor Sol og Glæde! Kom hent din lille Flok Til Himlens Brudesæde! Saa har den Glæde nok.
