Hail to God's Own Anointed
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Voices United #30 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Advent 4 Year B Lyrics: 1 Hail to God's own anointed,
great David's greater Son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
God's reign on earth begun!
Christ comes to break oppression,
to set the captive free;
to take away transgression,
and rule in equity.
2 Christ comes with justice surely
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,
are precious in his sight.
3 Christ shall come down like showers
upon the fruitful earth,
and love, joy, hope, 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 for ever:
that name to us is Love.

When the Virgin, full of grace,
by the Holy Ghost conceiving,
bare the Saviour of our race,
and the babe, the world's redeemer,
first revealed his sacred face,

4 This is he whom seers in old time
chanted of with one accord,
whom the voices of the prophets
promised in their faithful word;
now he shines, the long-expected;
let creation praise its Lord,
evermore and evermore.
5 O ye heights of heaven, adore him;
angel hosts, his praises sing;
powers, dominions, bow before him,
and extol our God and King;
let no tongue on earth be silent,
every voice in concert ring,
evermore and evermore.
6 Christ, to thee with God most blessèd,
and, O Holy Ghost, to thee,
hymn and chant and high thanksgiving,
and unwearied praises be,
honour, glory, and dominion
and eternal victory,

Til det gaar Jesus ind.

Siger, han er kun er Røst,
Som mod Syndens Saar og Brøst
Prædiker al Verdens Trøst.
3 Han ei værdig kjender sig,
Dine Sko at løse dig;
Hvad er da jeg, Adams Barn,
Skygge, Støv og Jord og Skarn;
Jeg er ikke værd at staa
Paa den Jord, du traadte paa,
Eller i din Forgaard gaa.
4 Søde Jesus, Davids Rod,
Jeg vil dig med Bøn og Bod
Rede og berede Sted
I min Sjæl og Hjerte med;
Tag det hen og dan det bedst,
Kom derind og vær min Gjæst,
Giv en salig Julefest.

Gud, efter dig mig længes
Author: Hans Sthen Hymnal: Salmebog for Lutherske Kristne i Amerika #125 (1919) Topics: Advent 4 Evening Service Lyrics: 1 Gud, efter dig mig længes,
Af Sorgen Hjertet trænges,
Til dig staar al min Lid
Alt paa dit Ord og Naade
Jeg trøster i min Vaade,
O Herre, vær mig mild og blid!
2 Mit Hjerte gjøres bange
For mine Synder mange,
Jesus er dog min Trøst;
Jeg tror ham vel for alle,
Han vil ei fra mig falde,
Han har mig med sit Blod forløst.
3 Stor Fristelse jeg finder,
Min Synd saa hart mig binder,
O Gud, hjælp mig derfra!
Lad mig fortabt ei blive
I Døden eller Live,
Jeg evig dig vil prise da!
4 O Jesus, Lifsens Herre,
Vil du min Jesus være!
Jesus, hvor sødt et Navn!
Jesus, min Frelser milde,
Vil sig fra mig ei skille,
Jesus han er min trygge Havn.
5 Gud Fader, dig miskunde,
Lad mig ei gaa til Grunde,
Mit Haab er sat til dig!
Guds Søn, som mig forløste,
Du hjælpe mig og trøste,
Styrk det, du har begyndt i mig!
6 Guds Aand i lige Maade
Mig give Visdom Naade,
Giv lykke, gode Raad,
Til flittig Tjener være,
Mit Kors taalmodig bære,
Og faa i Himlen Del og Lod!

For han gav sin Søn herned?
Mange skjønne lidt, desværre,
Paa saa stor en Kjærlighed;
Deres onde Syndelyst
Dække de med Naadens Trøst,
Vil af Jesu intet lære,
Og dog sande Kristne være.
2 Vistnok ingen Sjæl fordømmes,
Naar man paa sin Jesum tror,
Naadens Kilde aldrig tømmes,
Naaden er og bliver stor;
Men det er en afsagt Dom,
Siden Jesus til os kom,
Skal man sig fra Synden vende,
Eller ogsaa evig brænde.
3 At du vil i dine Lyster
Fare fort, som du er van,
Og dig dog ved Jesum trøster,
Gaar i Evighed ei an.
Kjære Hjerte, Et af To:
Enten udi Bøn og Tro
Syndens Vei at fly og hade,
Eller lide Sjæleskade.
4 Lyset er i Verden kommet;
Veed du ogsaa om du tror?
Har du nogen Tid fornummet,
At din Jesus i dig bor?
Har hans Naade-Straalers Kraft
I din Sjæl sin Virkning havt?
Kan du i dit Hjerte finde,
At der er et Lys derinde?
5 Hvordan gaar man dog og drømmer
Udi saadan vigtig Sag,
Og i Sikkerhed forsømmer
Naadens dyrbare Dag!
Det er Tid at sanse vel,
Og at sorge for din Sjæl;
Det et Tid at forkomme
Herrens store Vredes Domme.
6 Gud, som Lyset lod opklare
Udi Naadens blide Aar,
Vil og ingenlunde spare
Den, som dette Lys forsmaar.
Vil du vende Ryggen til,
Gud dig fra sig støde vil;
Den, som ei vil Lyset kjende,
Han skal sig paa Lyset brænde.
7 Lad din Naades Glans oprinde,
Søde Jesu, at jeg maa
Derved altid Veien finde,
Som jeg bør at vandre paa!
Vær min Formand, at jeg ei
Kommer paa den brede Vei,
Eller fra dit Fodspor viger,
Til jeg ind i Himlen stiger! Languages: Norwegian

Once in Royal David's City
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: Voices United #62 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Advent 4 Year A; Advent 4 Year B Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city
stood a lowly cattle-shed,
where a mother laid her baby
in a manger for his bed.
Mary was that mother mild,
Jesus Christ her little child.
2 He came down to earth from heaven,
who, with God is over all,
and his shelter was a stable,
and his cradle was a stall.
There among the poor and lowly
lived on earth our Saviour holy.
3 For he is our lifelong pattern;
daily, when on earth he grew;
he was tempted, scorned, rejected,
tears and smiles like us he knew.
Thus he feels for all our sadness,
and he shares in all our gladness.
4 And our eyes at last shall see him,
through his own redeeming love;
for that child who seemed so helpless
is our Lord in heaven above;
and he leads his children on
to the place where he is gone. Languages: English Tune Title: IRBY

Show the glory of the Son!
Marvel now, O heav'n and earth,
That our Lord chose such a birth.
2 Not by human flesh and blood,
By the Spirit of our God
Was the word of God made flesh-
Woman's offspring, pure and fresh.
3 Wondrous birth! O wondrous child
Of the Virgin undefiled!
Mighty God and man in one,
Eager now his race to run!
4 God Creator is his source,
Back to God he runs his course,
Down to death and hell descends,
God's high throne he reascends.
5 Now your lowly manger bright
Hallows night with newborn light;
Let no night this light subdue,
Let our faith shine ever new. Scripture: Luke 1:26-45 Languages: English Tune Title: NUN KOMM DER HEIDEN HEILAND

Tomorrow Christ is coming
Author: Fred Kaan Hymnal: Voices United #27 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Advent 4 Year A Lyrics: 1 Tomorrow Christ is coming
as yesterday he came;
a child is born this moment,
we do not know its name.
The world is full of darkness,
again there is no room;
the symbols of existence
are stable, cross and tomb.
2 Tomorrow will be Christmas,
the feast of love divine,
but for the nameless millions
the star will never shine.
Still is the census taken
with people on the move;
new infants born in stables
are crying out for love.
3 There will be no tomorrows
for many a baby born;
Good Friday falls on Christmas
when life is sown as corn.
But Jesus Christ is risen
and comes again in bread
to still our deepest hunger
and raise us from the dead.
4 Our God becomes incarnate
in every human birth.
Created in God's image,
we must make peace on earth.
God will fulfil Love's purpose
and this shall be the sign:
e shall find Christ among us
as woman, child, or man. Tune Title: LITTLE BADDOW

that saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
was blind, but now I see.
2 'Twas grace first taught my heart to fear
and grace my fears relieved;
how precious did that grace appear
the hour I first believed!
3 Through many dangers, toils, and snares,
I have already come;
'tis grace that brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.
4 The Lord has promised good to me,
this word my hope secures;
God will my shield and portion be
as long as life endures.
5 When we've been there ten thousand years
bright shining as the sun,
we've no less days to sing God's praise
than when we'd first begun. Languages: Chinese; Cree; English; French; Inuktitut; Japanese; Mohawk; Ojibway Tune Title: AMAZING GRACE (NEW BRITAIN)
