Thy Son hath made a friend of me, and when in spirit him I see, I joy in tribulation. What bliss is this! He that liveth to me giveth life forever; nothing me from him can sever. 5 Rejoice, ye heav'ns; thou earth reply; with praise, ye sinners, fill the sky, for this his incarnation.

Hark! hark! the notes of joy

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #231 (1870) Topics: Christ advent of Lyrics: 1 Hark! hark! the notes of joy Roll o’er the heavenly plains, And seraphs find employ For their sublimest strains: Some new delight in Heaven is known; Loud sound the harps around the throne. 2 Hark! hark! the sounds draw nigh; The joyful hosts descend; The Lord forsakes the sky; To earth His footsteps bend; He comes to bless our fallen race; He comes with messages of grace. 3 Bear, bear the tidings round; Let ev'ry mortal know What love in God is found, What pity He can show: Ye winds that blow, ye waves that roll, Convey the news from pole to pole. 4 Strike, strike the harps again, To great Immanuel’s name; Arise, ye sons of men, And all His grace proclaim: Angels and men, wake ev'ry string; ’Tis God the Saviour’s praise we sing.
