Rejoice, all ye believers
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #238 (1898) Meter: 7.6 Hymnal Title: Christian Hymns Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, all ye believers,
And let your lights appear!
The evening is advancing,
And darker night is near.
The Bridegroom is arising,
And soon He draweth nigh;
Up, pray, and watch, and wrestle!
At midnight comes the cry.
2 The watchers on the mountain
Proclaim the Bridegroom near;
Go meet Him as He cometh,
With hallelujahs clear.
The marriage-feast is waiting,
The gates wide open stand;
Up, up, ye heirs of glory!
The Bridegroom is at hand.
3 Ye saints, who here in patience
Your cross and sufferings bore,
Shall live and reign forever,
When sorrow is no more.
Around the throne of glory,
The Lamb ye shall behold,
In triumph cast before Him
Your diadems of gold.
4 Our Hope and Expectation,
O Jesus, now appear;
Arise, Thou Sun so longed for,
O'er this benighted sphere!
With hearts and hands uplifted,
We plead, O Lord, to see
The day of earth’s redemption,
That brings us unto Thee. Topics: Christ Second Advent of; Christ Bridegroom; Heavenly-Mindedness; Hope; Christian Joy; The Judgment Languages: English Tune Title: PRAISE

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #239 (1898) Meter: 7.6 Hymnal Title: Christian Hymns Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians,
With all your hearts, this morn!
O hear the blessed tidings,
"The Lord, the Christ, is born!"
Now brought us by the angels
That stand about God's throne:
O lovely are the voices
That make such tidings known!
2 O hearken to their singing!
This Child shall be your friend;
The Father so hath willed it,
That thus your woes should end.
The Son is freely given,
That in Him ye may have
The Father's grace and blessing,
And know He loves to save.
3 Nor deem the form too lowly
That clothes Him at this hour;
For know ye what it hideth?
'Tis God's almighty power!
Though now within the manger
So poor and weak He lies,
He is the Lord of all things,
He reigns above the skies.
4 Sin, death, and hell, and Satan
Have lost the victory;
This Child shall overthrow them,
As ye shall surely see.
Their wrath shall nought avail them;
Fear not, their reign is o'er;
This Child shall overthrow them,--
O hear, and doubt no more. Topics: TheChurch Year Christmas; Christ Humiliation of; Christian Joy Languages: English Tune Title: PRAISE

Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #241 (1898) Meter: 7.6 Hymnal Title: Christian Hymns Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed,
Great David's greater Son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
His reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
To set the captive free,
To take away transgression,
And rule in equity.
2 He comes with succor speedy
To those who suffer wrong;
To help the poor and needy,
And bid the weak be strong;
To give them songs for sighing,
Their darkness turn to light,
Whose souls, condemned and dying,
Were precious in His sight.
3 He shall descend like showers
Upon the fruitful earth,
And love, and joy, like flowers,
Spring in His path to birth;
Before Him, on the mountains,
Shall peace, the herald, go;
And righteousness, in fountains,
From hill to valley flow.
4 To Him shall prayer unceasing
And daily vows ascend,
His kingdom still increasing--
A kingdom without end.
The tide of time shall never
His covenant remove;
His name shall stand forever,--
That name to us is Love. Topics: TheChurch Year Advent; Christ Defender and Helper; Christ King Languages: English Tune Title: PRAISE

Come, let us sing of Jesus,

His holy soul rejoices
Amid the choirs above,
To hear our youthful voices
Exulting in His love.

And still retains His feeling
For us above the sky.
3 We love to sing of Jesus,
Who died our souls to save;
We love to sing of Jesus,
Triumphant o’er the grave;
And in the hour of danger
We’ll trust His love alone,

And now sits on the throne.
4 Then let us sing of Jesus,
While yet on earth we stay,
And hope to sing of Jesus
Throughout eternal day;
For those who here confess Him,
He will in heaven confess,
And faithful hearts that bless Him
He will forever bless. Languages: English Tune Title: PRAISE

There's a Friend for little children
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #308 (1898) Meter: 7.6 Hymnal Title: Christian Hymns Lyrics: 1 There’s a Friend for little children
Above the bright blue sky,
A Friend who never changeth,
Whose love will never die;
Unlike our friends by nature,
Who change with changing years,
This Friend is always worthy
The precious name He bears.
2 There’s a rest for little children,
Above the bright blue sky,
For those who love the Saviour,
And Abba, Father, cry,
A rest from every turmoil,
From sin and danger free,
Where every little pilgrim
Shall rest eternally.
3 There’s a home for little children
Above the bright blue sky,
Where Jesus reigns in glory,--
A home of peace and joy;
No home on earth is like it,
Nor can with it compare,
For every one is happy,
Nor could be happier, there.
4 There’s a crown for little children
Above the bright blue sky,
And all who look to Jesus
Shall wear it by and by;
A crown of brightest glory,
Which He will then bestow
On all who found His favor
And loved His name below.
5 There’s a song for little children
Above the bright blue sky,
A song that will not weary,
Though sung continually;
A song which even angels
Can never, never sing;
They know not Christ as Saviour,
But worship Him as King.
6 There's a robe for little children
Above the bright blue sky,
And a harp of sweetest music,
And a palm of victory.
All, all above is treasured,
And found in Christ alone;
O come, dear little children,
That all may be your own. Topics: Christ Friend of Children; Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: PRAISE

O How Shall I Receive Thee
Author: Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #78 (1927) Hymnal Title: Hymnal for Church and Home Lyrics: 1 O how shall I receive Thee,
How greet Thee, Lord, aright?
All nations long to see Thee,
My Hope, my heart's Delight!
O kindle, Lord most holy,
Thy fire within my breast,
To do in spirit lowly
All that may please Thee best.
2 Thy Zion palms is strewing,
And branches fresh and fair;
My heart, its pow'rs renewing,
An anthem shall prepare.
My soul puts off her sadness
Thy glory to proclaim;
With all her strength and gladness
She fain would serve Thy name.
3 I lay in fetters groaning,
Thou com'st to set me free;
I stood, my shame bemoaning,
Thou com'st to honor me.
A glory Thou dost give me,
A treasure safe on high,
That will not fail nor leave me,
As earthly riches fly.
4 Love caused Thine incarnation,
Love brought Thee down to me;
Thy thirst for my salvation
Procur'd my liberty.
O love beyond all telling,
That led Thee to embrace,
In love all love excelling,
Our lost and fallen race!
5 Rejoice then, ye sad-hearted,
Who sit in deepest gloom,
Who mourn o'er joys departed,
And tremble at your doom:
He who alone can cheer you
Is standing at the door;
He brings His pity near you,
And bids you weep no more. Topics: Advent Languages: English Tune Title: [O how shall I receive Thee]

To lead them in Thy steps.

Nor shall Thy grace and light.

And cloud his spirit's eye,
Thy mighty hand uphold him
And guide him from on high.
4 Oh, meet him in his chamber
And listen to his prayer;
With kindness him remember,
Surround him with Thy care,
And help him in his calling
To teach the heaven-born,
To warn the sinners falling
And comfort those who mourn.

From early morn till night;
Let evil not confuse us,
Nor dim Thy Spirit's light.

With Sacrament and Word,
That fields of thine may flourish
And bear Thee fruit, O Lord!

Alt baade til Liv og Sjæl!

Hos dit Ord vil jeg blive,
Til dig stander al min Agt.

Paa denne Verdens Ø,
Af dig vil jeg begjære,
Min Synd den maatte dø!
Det sker alt for din Pine,
Og ved din Helligaand,
Naar han med Gaver sine
Fornyer mit Sind og Aand.
9 O Jesu, Morgenstjerne,
Du Hjertens Balsam skjøn!
Dig takker jeg saa gjerne,
Velsignede Guds Søn!
Du Sjæl og Aand gjør rene,
Naar jeg for Dommen staar,
Som Guld og ædle Stene,
Og Kroppen som Solen klar!
10 O Jesu, Livsens Herre,
Du høre, hvad jeg bad,
Du vilde hos mig være,
Saa bli'r mit Hjerte glad!
Og giv mig Naader dine,
Naar jeg bortsove skal,
Frels mig fra Helveds Pine,
Før mig til Himmerigs Sal!

O cup that heals our woes!
My heart this gift possessing,
In thankful song o’erflows.
2 My Lord, Thou here hast led me
Within Thy holiest place,
And there Thyself hast fed me
With treasures of Thy grace:
And Thou hast freely given,
What earth could never buy,--
The bread of Life from heaven,
That now I shall not die.
3 Thou gav'st all I wanted,
The power can death destroy;
And Thou has freely granted
The cup of endless joy.
Ah, Lord, I do not merit
The favor Thou hast shown,
And all my soul and spirit
Bow down before Thy throne.
4 Lord, grant me that, thus strengthened
With heavenly food, while here
My course on earth is lengthened,
I serve with holy fear;
And when Thou call’st my spirit
To leave this world below,
I enter, through Thy merit,
Where joys unmingled flow.

O living Bread from heaven
O how shall I receive Thee
Author: P. Gerhardt Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #157 (1913) Hymnal Title: The Lutheran Hymnary Lyrics: 1 O how shall I receive Thee,
How meet Thee on Thy way;
Blest hope of every nation,
My soul's delight and stay?
Jesus, Jesus, give me,
By Thine illuming light,
To know whate'er is pleasing
And welcome in Thy sight.
2 Thy Zion palms is strewing,
And branches fresh and fair;
And every soul awaking,
Her anthem shall prepare;
Perpetual thanks and praises
Forth from our hearts shall spring;
And to Thy name the service
Of all our powers we bring.
3 O ye who sorrow, sinking
Beneath your grief and pain,
Rejoice in His appearing,
Who shall your souls sustain:
He comes, He come with gladness!
How great is His good-will!
He comes, all grief and anguish
Shall at His word be still.
4 Ye who with guilty terror
Are trembling, fear no more:
With love and grace the Savior
Shall you to hope restore;
He comes, who contrite sinners
Will with the children place,
The children of His Father,
The heirs of life and grace.
5 He comes, the Lord, to judgment;
Woe, woe to them who hate!
To those who love and seek Him
He opes the heavenly gate.
Come quickly, gracious Savior,
And gather us to Thee,
That in the light eternal
Our joyous home may be.

O how shall I receive Thee
Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #197 (1913) Hymnal Title: The Lutheran Hymnary Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians,
With all your hearts, this morn!
O hear the blessed tidings,
"The Lord, the Christ, is born,"
Now brought us by the angels
That stand about God's throne;
Oh lovely are the voices
That make such tidings known!
2 O hearken to their singing!
This Child shall be your friend;
The Father so hath willed it,
That thus your woes should end.
The Son is freely given,
That in Him ye may have
The Father's grace and blessing,
And know He loves to save.
3 Nor deem the form too lowly
That clothes Him at this hour;
For know ye what it hideth?
'Tis God's almighty power.
Though now within the manger
So poor and weak He lies,
He is the Lord of all things,
He reigns above the skies.
4 Sin, death, and hell, and Satan
Have lost the victory;
This Child shall overthrow them,
As ye shall surely see.
Their wrath shall naught avail them;
Fear not, their reign is o'er;
This Child shall overthrow them,--
O hear, and doubt no more! Topics: The Church Year Christmas; The Church Year Christmas Tune Title: [Rejoice, rejoice, ye Christians]

If God Himself be for me
Author: P. Gerhardt Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #272 (1913) Hymnal Title: The Lutheran Hymnary Lyrics: 1 If God Himself be for me,
I may a host defy,
For when I pray, before me
My foes confounded fly:
If Christ, the Head, befriend me,
If God be my support,
The mischief they intend me
Shall quickly come to naught.
2 This I believe--yea, rather,
In this I make my boast,
That God is my dear Father,
The griend who loves me most;
And that, whate'er betide me,
My Savior is at hand,
Through stormy seas to guide me
And bring me safe to land.
3 I build on this foundation,--
That Jesus and His blood
Alone are my salvation,
The true, eternal good:
Without Him, all that pleases
Is valueless on earth;
The gifts I owe to Jesus
Alone my love are worth.
4 His Holy Spirit dwelleth
Within my willing heart,
Tames it when it rebelleth,
And soothes the keenest smart:
He crowns His work with blessing,
And helpeth me to cry,
"My Father!" without ceasing,
To Him who dwells on high.
5 And when my soul is lying
Weak, trembling, and oppressed,
He pleads with groans and sighing
That cannot be expressed;
But God's quick eye discerns them
Although they give no sound,
And into language turns them,
E'en in the heart's deep ground.
6 To mine His Spirit speaketh
Sweet words of soothing power,
How God to him that seeketh
For rest, hath rest in store:
There God Himself prepareth
My heritage and lot,
And though my body weareth,
My heaven shall fail me not.
7 Who clings with resolution
To Him whom Satan hates,
Must look for persecution
Which never here abates;
Reproaches, griefs and losses
Rain fast upon his head,
A thousand plagues and crosses
Become his daily bread.
8 All this I am prepared for,
Yet am I not afraid;
By Thee shall all be cared for,
To whom my vows were paid:
Though life and limb it cost me,
And all the earthly store
Which once so much engrossed me,--
I love Thee all the more.
9 Not fire, nor sword, nor thunder,
Shall sever me from Thee;
Though earth be rent asunder,
Thou'rt mine eternally:
Not hunger, thirst, nor danger,
Not pain, or pinching want,
Nor mighty princes' anger,
My fearless soul shall daunt.
10 No angel, and no gladness,
No throne, no pomp, nor show,
No love, no hate, no sadness,
No pain, no depth of woe,
No scheme of man's contrivance,
Though it be great or small,
Shall draw me from Thy guidance,
Not one of these, nor all!
11 My merry heart is springing,
And knows not how to pine;
'Tis full of joy and singing,
And radiancy divine;
The sun whose smiles so cheers me
Is Jesus Christ alone;
To have Him always near me
Is heaven itself begun.
