While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks
Author: Nahum Tate Appears in 1,105 hymnals First Line: While shepherds watched their flocks by night Lyrics: 1 While shepherds watched their flocks by night,
All seated on the ground,
The angel of the Lord came down,
And glory shone around,
And glory shone around.

Had seized their troubled mind.
"Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind,
To you and all mankind.
3 "To you, in David's town this day,
Is born of David's line
The Savior, who is Christ the Lord,
And this shall be the sign:

4 "The heav'nly Babe you there shall find
To human view displayed,
All meanly wrapped in swathing bands,
And in a manger laid;
And in a manger laid.
5 "All glory be to God on high,
And to the earth be peace:
Good will henceforth from heav'n to men,
Begin and never cease,
Begin and never cease." Topics: Jesus Our Savior : His Birth Used With Tune: CHRISTMAS

Arise, the kingdom is at hand
Author: Miss Winkworth; John Rist Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 29 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Arise, the kingdom is at hand,
The King is drawing nigh;
Arise with joy, ye faithful band,
To meet the Lord most high!
2 Look up, ye souls weighed down with care,
The Sovereign is not far;
Look up, faint hearts, from your despair,
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!
4 Hope, O ye broken hearts, at last!
The King comes on in might:
He loved us in the ages past,
When we lay wrapt in night:
5 Now fear and wrath to joy give place,
Now are our sorrow o'er,
Since God hath made us in His grace
His children evermore.
6 O rich the gifts Thou bringest us,
Thyself made poor and weak;
O Love beyond compare that thus
Can foes and sinners seek!
7 For this we raise a gladsome voice,
On high to Thee alone,
And evermore with thanks rejoice
Before Thy glorious throne. Topics: Advent; Advent, First Sunday; Epiphany, Third Sunday Used With Tune: CHRISTMAS
