• [Luk 2:10] As On The Night Before

  As on the night before this happy morn, A blessèd angel unto shepherds told, Where in a stable He was poorly born, Whom nor the earth nor Heav’n of Heav’ns can hold. Thro’ Bethl’em rang this news at their return; Yea, angels sang that God with us was born; And they made mirth because we should not mourn, And they made mirth because we should not mourn. Their angel carols sing we then; To God on high all glory be, For peace on earth bestoweth He, And showeth favor unto men. This favor Christ vouchsafèd for our sake; To buy us thrones, He in a manger lay; Our weakness took, that we His strength might take, And was disrobed, that He might us array; Our flesh He wore, our sins to wear away; Our curse He bore, that we escape it may; And wept for us that we might sing for aye; And wept for us that we might sing for aye; With angels, therefore, sing again; To God on high all glory be, For peace on earth bestoweth He, And showeth favor unto men.

Yet could it afford No better a place for its heavenly Lord? The Ancient of Days Redeems a lost race: His glory comes down Self-humbled to carry us up to a crown. Made flesh for our sake, That we might partake The nature divine, Again in His image, His holiness shine.

  From church to church the bells’ glad tidings run: A virgin hath conceived, and borne a Son In Bethlehem. And angel hosts, the midnight of His birth, Sang “Glory be to God, and peace on earth,” In Bethlehem. “Now go we forth, and see this wondrous thing,” The shepherds said, “and seek the newborn King In Bethlehem.” Then Herod sought the royal Son to slay, Who rather should have to come to kneel and pray In Bethlehem. The star went leading on from east to west: The wise men followed, till they saw it rest In Bethlehem. Their frankincense and myrrh, and gold they bring, To hail the God, the Mortal, and the King In Bethlehem. With threefold gifts the Threefold God three praise, Who thus vouchsafed the sons of man raise, In Bethlehem.

  From Heaven above to earth I come, To bear good news to every home; Glad tidings of great joy I bring, Whereof I now will say and sing. To you, this night, is born a Child Of Mary, chosen mother mild; This little Child, of lowly birth, Shall be the joy of all your earth. ’Tis Christ our God, who far on high Had heard your sad and bitter cry; Himself will your Salvation be, Himself from sin will make you free. He brings those blessings, long ago Prepared by God for all below; Henceforth His kingdom open stands To you, as to the angel bands. These are the tokens ye shall mark, The swaddling clothes and manger dark; There shall ye find the young Child laid, By whom the heavens and earth were made. Now let us all, with gladsome cheer Follow the shepherds, and draw near To see this wondrous gift of God, Who hath His only Son bestowed. Give heed, my heart, lift up thine eyes! Who is it in yon manger lies? Who is this Child so young and fair? The blessèd Christ-child lieth there. Welcome to earth, Thou noble Guest, Through Whom e’en wicked men are blest! Thou com’st to share our misery, What can we render, Lord, to Thee! Ah, Lord, who hast created all, How hast Thou made Thee weak and small, That Thou must choose Thy infant bed Where ass and ox but lately fed! Were earth a thousand times as fair, Beset with gold and jewels rare, She yet were far too poor to be A narrow cradle, Lord, for Thee. For velvets soft and silken stuff Thou hast but hay and straw so rough, Whereon Thou King, so rich and great, As ’twere Thy heaven, art throned in state. Thus hath it pleased Thee to make plain The truth to us poor fools and vain, That this world’s honor, wealth and might Are naught and worthless in Thy sight. Ah, dearest Jesus, holy Child, Make Thee a bed, soft, undefiled, Within my heart, that it may be A quiet chamber kept for Thee. My heart for very joy doth leap, My lips no more can silence keep, I too must sing, with joyful tongue, That sweetest ancient cradle-song— Glory to God in highest Heaven, Who unto man His Son hath given! While angels sing, with pious mirth, A glad New Year to all the earth.

  From highest Heaven, on joyous wing, I come to you good news to bring; Good news I bring, a plenteous store, Whereof my song shall tell you more. For unto you, this happy morn, Of virgin meek and pure, is born A holy Child, a gentle Boy, To be your bliss and chiefest joy. It is the Christ, our God indeed, The very help poor sinners need; He will Himself your Savior be, From sin and sorrow set you free. To you the blessedness He bears, Which God the Father’s love prepares, That in His heavenly kingdom blest, You may with us for ever rest. So mark ye well the signs I show, The swaddling bands, the manger low; There shall ye find the young Child laid, By whom the universe was made. Then let us all right merry be, And with the shepherds go and see The gift which God to us hath given, His own dear Son sent down from Heaven. Mark thou, my heart, look well mine eyes, What yonder in the manger lies! What Child is that so wondrous fair? The little Jesus lieth there. Welcome, thrice welcome, noble Guest! The sinner’s friend, the mourner’s rest; For coming thus to grief and me, How can I thank Thee worthily? Ah! mighty Lord, who madest all, How couldst Thou make Thyself so small, To lie upon the coarse dry grass, The food of humble ox and ass? And were the world ten times as wide, With gold and jewels beautified, It would be far too small to be A little cradle, Lord, for Thee? Thy silk and velvet are coarse hay, Thy swaddling bands the mean array, With which e’en Thou, a King so great, Art clad as with a robe of state. And thus, perhaps, it pleaseth Thee To make this truth quite plain to me, That worldly honor, wealth, and might Are mean and worthless in Thy sight. Ah! Jesus, lay Thy gentle head, And make Thyself a clean, soft bed Here in the corner of my heart, That I and Thou may never part. So will I ever joyful be, And sing and dance right merrily, As mothers sing, the cradle nigh, Their sweetest, softest lullaby. Now praise we God on His high throne, Who giveth us His only Son! Such the good news the angels bring, Such the new year of which they sing.

Strike, strike the harps again, To great Immanuel’s Name; Arise, ye sons of men! And all His grace proclaim; Angels and men! wake every string ’Tis God the Savior’s praise we sing.

Yea—faith through that dim cloud, Like lightning darts before, And greets Thee, at Whose footstool bowed Heaven’s trembling hosts adore.

So shall Thy birthday morn, Lord Christ, our birthday be, Then greet we all, ourselves newborn, Our King’s nativity.

For it dawns, the promised morrow Of His birth, who the earth rescues from her sorrow. God to wear our form descendeth; Of His grace to our race here His Son He sendeth. Yea, so truly for us careth, That His Son, all we’ve done, as our offering beareth; As our Lamb Who, dying for us, Bears our load, and to God, doeth in peace restore us. Hark! a voice from yonder manger, Soft and sweet, doth entreat, “Flee from woe and danger; Brethren, come; from all that grieves you You are freed; all you need I will surely give you.” Come, then, let us hasten yonder; Here let all, great and small, kneel in awe and wonder, Love Him Who with love is yearning; Hail the star that from far bright with hope is burning. Ye who pine in weary sadness, Weep no more, for the door now is found of gladness. Cling to Him, for He will guide you Where no cross, pain or loss, can again betide you. Hither come, ye poor and wretched: Know His will is to fill every hand outstretchèd; Here are riches without measure, Here forget all regret, fill your hearts with treasure. Blessèd Savior, let me find Thee! Keep Thou me close to Thee, cast me not behind Thee! Life of life, my heart Thou stillest, Calm I rest on Thy breast, all this void Thou fillest. Thee, dear Lord, with heed I’ll cherish; Live to Thee and with Thee, dying, shall not perish; But shall dwell with Thee for ever, Far on high, in the joy that can alter never. Forth today the Conqueror goeth, Who the foe, sin and woe, death and hell, o’erthroweth. God is man, man to deliver; His dear Son now is one with our blood forever. Shall we still dread God’s displeasure, Who, to save, freely gave His most cherished Treasure? To redeem us, He hath given His own Son from the throne of His might in Heaven. Should He who Himself imparted Aught withhold from the fold, leave us broken hearted? Should the Son of God not love us, Who, to cheer sufferers here, left His throne above us? If our blessèd Lord and Maker Hated men, would He then be of flesh partaker? If He in our woe delighted, Would He bear all the care of our race benighted? He becomes the Lamb that taketh Sin away and for aye full atonement maketh. For our life His own He tenders And our race, by His grace, meet for glory renders.

• [Luk 2:11] Come, Shepherds, Come!

  Come, shepherds, come! shake off your sleep, And ope your weary eyes; ’Tis time to leave your folded sheep, Come, shepherds, come, arise! Hark! angels clad in bright array, Burst forth in heav’nly song; See! night grows brighter than the day, Lit by their glistening throng. Around the hut wherein I slept A gleam of light was seen. And golden strings of harps were swept By angels clad in sheen. What sounds of joy the air then stirred! What hymns of holy rest! In terra pax above I heard And Christus natus est. We, too, this welcome news did hear From angels in the air, They bade us cast away all fear, And to the town repair. We hastened to the humble stall, The Holy Child we sought; On bended knee each one did fall, And humble offerings brought. Then know, all friends, who wish to see Your sweet Redeemer’s face, Though long, the way full short will be, If ye but ask His grace. No thorns your faithful steps shall stay And light will shine around; All doubts and fears will pass away When Jesus Christ is found.

• [Luk 2:11] I Sing The Birth Was Born Tonight

  I sing the birth was born tonight, The Author both of life and light; The angels so did sound it, And like the ravished shepherds said, Who saw the light, and were afraid, Yet searched, and true they found it. The Son of God, th’eternal King, That did us all salvation bring, And freed the soul from danger; He Whom the whole world could not take, The Word, which Heaven and earth did make, Was now laid in a manger. The Father’s wisdom willed it so, The Son’s obedience knew no “No,” Both wills were in one stature; And as that wisdom had decreed, The Word was now made Flesh indeed, And took on Him our nature. What comfort by Him do we win? Who made Himself the Prince of sin, To make us heirs of glory? To see this Babe, all innocence, A Martyr born in our defense, Can man forget this story?

  The joyful morn is breaking, the brightest morn on earth, Through all creation waking the joy of Jesus’ birth. His star above is glistening, where Jesus cradled lies, And all the earth is listening, the carol of the skies. High strains of praise are swelling, from angel hosts on high, And one soft voice is telling glad tidings from the sky; Tidings of free salvation, of peace on earth below, Through every land and nation, the blessèd word shall go. His children’s songs shall name Him in many a tongue today; His Church shall yet proclaim Him to people far away; Till idols fall before Him, till strife and wrong shall cease, Till all the earth adore Him, th’eternal Prince of Peace.

  Like silver lamps in a distant shrine, The stars are sparkling bright; The bells of the city of God ring out, For the Son of Mary is born tonight. The gloom is past, and the morn at last Is coming with orient light. No earthly songs are half so sweet As those which are filling the skies, And never a palace shone half so fair As the manger-bed where our Savior lies; No night in the year is half so dear As this which has ended our sighs. The stars of heaven still shine as at first They gleamed on this wonderful night, The bells of the city of God peal out, And the angels’ song still rings in the height, And loves still turns where the Godhead burns, Hid in flesh from fleshly sight. Faith sees no longer the stable floor, The pavement of sapphire is there, The clear light of Heaven streams out to the world, And the angels of God are crowding the air, And Heaven and earth, thro’ the spotless birth, Are at peace on this night so fair.

  From every spire on Christmas Eve, the Christmas bells ring clearly out Their message of goodwill and peace, with many a call and silver shout. For faithful hearts, the angels’ song still echoes in the frosty air, And by the altar low they bow, in adoration and in prayer. A thousand blessed memories throng, the stars are holy signs to them, And from the eyes of every child looks forth the Babe of Bethlehem; But there are others, not like these, whose brows are sad, whose hopes are crossed, To whom the season brings no cheer, and life’s most gracious charm is lost. To whom that story, old and sweet, is but a fable at the best, The Christmas music mocks their ears, and life has naught of joy or rest. Oh! for angel’s voice to pierce the clouds of grief that over them rise, The mists of doubt and unbelief that veil the blue of Christmas skies. That they, at last, may see the Light which shines from Bethlehem, and unfold For Christ the treasures of their hearts, richer than spicery or gold. Hope of the ages, draw Thou near, till all the earth shall own Thy sway, And when Thou reignest in every heart it will, indeed, be Christmas Day.

Soft and pure and holy glory, Kings and seers and prophets hoary, Shed throughout the sacred story: While the priests, like shepherds true, Watched beside God’s chosen few. But that light no more availéd, And its splendor staighway paléd In His light Whom angels hailéd; Even as the stars of old, ’Mid the brightness lost their gold.

• [Luk 2:13] Music On Christmas Morning

  Music I love—­but ne’er a strain Could kindle raptures so divine, So grief assuage, so conquer pain, And rouse this pensive heart of mine; As that we hear on Christmas morn, Upon the wintry breezes borne. Though darkness still her empire keep, And hours must pass, ere morning break; From troubled dreams, or slumbers deep, That music kindly bids us wake: It calls us, with an angel’s voice, To wake, and worship, and rejoice. To greet with joy the glorious morn, Which angels welcomed long ago, When our redeeming Lord was born, To bring the light of Heaven below; The powers of darkness to dispel, And rescue Earth from death and hell. While listening to that sacred strain, My raptured spirit soars on high; I seem to hear those songs again Resounding through the open sky, That kindled such divine delight, In those who watched their flocks by night. With them, I celebrate His birth; Glory to God, in highest Heaven, Good will to men, and peace on Earth, To us a Savior King is given; Our God is come to claim His own, And Satan’s power is overthrown! A sinless God, for sinful men, Descends to suffer and to bleed; Hell must renounce its empire then; The price is paid, the world is freed, And Satan’s self must now confess, That Christ has earned a right to bless. Now holy peace may smile from Heaven, And heavenly truth from earth shall spring: The captive’s galling bonds are riven, For our Redeemer is our King; And He that gave His blood for men Will lead us home to God again.

  Shades of silent night dividing, Bursts the glory from above; Down the stream of brightness gliding, Comes the messenger of love; To the shepherds lowly, telling Of the Christ expected long, While the sudden anthem, swelling Fills the flowing heav’n with song. Heav’n will guard their flocks from danger Scattered o’er the moist green sward, While the swains to Bethlehem’s manger, Hie to greet their newborn Lord. Awe and love maternal blending, Fill the blessèd virgin’s heart; While with reverent gesture bending, Kneel these humble men apart. Not alone do men unlearnèd Bow the holy Child before: Sages who for truth long yearnèd Heav’ns true Sun at length adore. So our songs proclaim a story Kings of old have longed to know; Tell of Christ, the Prince of Glory, Born this night, for high and low.

  ’Twas in the moon of wintertime, When all the birds had fled, That mighty Gitchi Manitou Sent angel choirs instead; Before their light the stars grew dim, And wondering hunters heard the hymn: Refrain Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born, In excelsis gloria. Within a lodge of broken bark The tender babe was found, A ragged robe of rabbit skin Enwrapped His beauty round; But as the hunter braves drew nigh, The angel song rang loud and high: Refrain The earliest moon of wintertime Is not so round and fair As was the ring of glory on The helpless Infant there. The chiefs from far before Him knelt With gifts of fox and beaver pelt. Refrain O children of the forest free, O seed of Manitou, The holy Child of earth and Heav’n Is born today for you. Come kneel before the radiant Boy, Who brings you beauty, peace and joy. Refrain

  All glory to God, and peace upon earth, Be published abroad at Jesus’ birth; The forfeited favor of Heaven we find Restored in the Savior and Friend of mankind. Then let us behold Messias the Lord, By prophets foretold, by angels adored; Our God’s incarnation with angels proclaim, And publish salvation in Jesus’ Name. Our newly born King by faith we have seen And joyfully sing His goodness to men, That all men may wonder at what we impart, And thankfully ponder His love in their heart. What moved the Most High so greatly to stoop, He comes from the sky our souls to lift up; That sinners forgiven, might sinless return To God and to Heaven; their Maker is born. Immanuel’s love let sinners confess, Who comes from above, to bring us His peace; Let every believer His mercy adore, And praise Him forever, when time is no more.

  All glory to God in the sky, And peace upon earth be restored! O Jesus, exalted on high, Appear our omnipotent Lord: Who meanly in Bethlehem born, Didst stoop to redeem a lost race, Once more to Thy creature return, And reign in Thy kingdom of grace. When Thou in our flesh didst appear, All nature acknowledged Thy birth; Arose the acceptable year, And Heaven was opened on earth. Receiving its Lord from above, The world was united to bless The Giver of concord and love, The Prince and the Author of peace. O wouldst Thou again be made known, Again in Thy Spirit descend, And set up in each of Thine own A kingdom that never shall end! Thou only art able to bless, And make the glad nations obey, And bid the dire enmity cease, And bow the whole world to Thy sway. Come then to Thy servants again, Who long Thy appearing to know, Thy quiet and peaceable reign, In mercy establish below: All sorrow before Thee shall fly, And anger and hatred be o’er, And envy and malice shall die, And discord afflict us no more. No horrid alarm of war Shall break our eternal repose; No sound of the trumpet is there, Where Jesus’ Spirit o’erflows: Appeased by the charms of Thy grace We all shall in amity join, And kindly each other embrace, And love with a passion like Thine.

  Stars all bright are beaming From the skies above, Nature’s face all gleaming, Shines with Heaven’s own love.

• [Luk 2:14] Waking Out Of Silence

  Waking out of silence rang a heav’nly song, Darkness giving place to light divine; Thro’ the gates of Heaven came an angel throng, Hasting down to join in chant sublime; Wonderful the music over Bethle’em’s hill! Wonderful the light that shone around! “Glory in the highest,” and on earth goodwill! Earth, attend the glad, angelic sound! Refrain Silent no more Is the scene of that song; Still to faith it ringeth clear, To love it still is dear, No darkness may reign O’er that hillside and plain; That light divine, To faith doth shine, So bright, so strong! Waking out of silence came an angel voice, “Fear not,” thus doth Heaven comfort send, Fear may well give place to joy, O earth, rejoice! Angel tongues announce your mighty Friend. Shepherds heard the message, we are telling now; Sages followed far the King to see. Come, oh come, and in His royal presence bow! Hail the day He came our King to be. Refrain Waking out of silence comes a voice divine, Clouds and darkness lift, and are no more; Heav’nly light and blessing o’er our pathway shine, Jesus speaks to help us o’er and o’er. He, who came attended by the angel choir, He, who lowly lay in yonder stall! Reigneth now the King of kings, our hearts’ Desire, Fairest of ten thousand! Lord of all! Refrain

• [Luk 2:14] What Means This Glory Round Our Feet

  “What means this glory round our feet,” The Magi mused, “more bright than morn!” And voices chanted clear and sweet, “Today the Prince of Peace is born!” “What means this star,” the shepherds said, “That brightens through the rocky glen?” And angels answering overhead, Sang “Peace on earth, good will to men!” ’Tis now two thousand years, and more, [originally ’Tis eighteen hundred years, and more] Since those sweet oracles were dumb; We wait for Him, like them of yore; Alas! He seems so slow to come! But it was said, in words of gold, No time nor sorrow e’er shall dim, That little children might be bold, In perfect trust to come to Him. All round about our feet shall shine A light like that the wise men saw, If we our loving wills incline To that sweet Life which is the Law. So shall we learn to understand The simple faith of shepherds then, And kindly clasping hand in hand, Sing “Peace on earth, good will to men!”

• [Luk 2:14] Worcester Christmas Carol, The

  How grand and how bright That wonderful night, When angels to Bethlehem came! They burst forth like fires, They struck their gold lyres, And mingled their song with the flame. The shepherds were mazed, The pretty lambs gazed At darkness thus turned into light: No voice was there heard From man, beast or bird, So sudden and solemn the sight. And then, when the sound reechoed around, The hills and the dales all awoke: The moon and the stars Stopped their fiery cars, And listened while Gabriel spoke: “I bring you,” said he, “From the glorious Three, Good tidings to gladden mankind; The Savior is born, But He lies forlorn In a manger, as soon you will find.” At mention of this, (The source of all bliss,) The angels sang loudly and long; The soared to the sky, Beyond mortal eye, But left us the words of their song: “All glory to God,” Who laid by His rod, To smile on the world through His Son: “And peace be on earth,” For this wonderful birth Wonderful conquests has won; “And good will to man,” Though his life’s a span, And his thoughts so evil and wrong; Then pray, Christians, pray; But let Christmas day Have your sweetest and holiest song. “I bring you,” said he, “From the glorious Three, Good tidings to gladden mankind; The Savior is born, But He lies all forlorn In a manger, as soon you will find.” … “All glory to God,” Who laid by His rod, To smile on the world through His Son: “And peace be on earth,” For this wonderful birth Most wonderful conquests has won; “And good will to man,” Though his life’s but a span, And his thoughts so evil and wrong; Then pray, Christians, pray; But let Christmas day Have your sweetest and holiest song.

  “It must be settled tonight, Tomorrow may be too late”; The angel of death may come, And seal forever my fate. It must be settled to-night, I can no longer wait, Peace with my God I now must have, Tomorrow may be too late. A burden weighs my soul I can no longer bear; Unless removed this night, ’Twill sink me into despair. It must be settled to-night, I can no longer wait, Peace with my God I now must have, Tomorrow may be too late. I cannot rest till peace Enfolds me from above, Till my Redeemer speaks to me Assurance of His love. It must be settled to-night, I can no longer wait, Peace with my God I now must have, Tomorrow may be too late. Oh, now I know ’tis done!

Sweet joy pervades my soul; Peace with my God I now have found; His blood hath made me whole.

  Jesus, the calm that fills my breast, No other heart than Thine can give; This peace unstirred, this joy of rest, None but Thy loved ones can receive. My weary soul has found a charm That turns to blessedness my woe; Within the shelter of Thine arm, I rest secure from storm and foe. In desert wastes I feel no dread, Fearless I walk the trackless sea; I care not where my way is led, Since all my life is life with Thee. O Christ, through changeful years my Guide My Comforter in sorrow’s night, My Friend, when friendless—still abide, My Lord, my Counselor, my Light. My time, my powers, I give to Thee; My inmost soul ’tis Thine to move; I wait for Thy eternity, I wait, in peace, in praise, in love.

  By the cross of Jesus standing, Love our straitened souls expanding, Taste we now the peace and grace! Health from yonder tree is flowing, Heav’nly light is on it glowing, From the blessed Sufferer’s face. Here is pardon’s pledge and token, Guilt’s strong chain forever broken, Righteous peace securely made; Brightens now the brow once shaded, Freshens now the face once faded, Peace with God now makes us glad. All the love of God is yonder, Love above all thought and wonder, Perfect love that casts out fear! Strength, like dew, is here distilling, Glorious life our souls is filling, Life eternal, only here! Here the living water welleth; Here the Rock, now smitten, telleth Of salvation freely giv’n: This the fount of love and pity, This the pathway to the city, This the very gate of Heav’n.

I love the cross of Jesus, It tells me what I am— A vile and guilty creature Saved only thro’ the Lamb; No righteousness or merit, No beauty can I plead; Yet in the cross of Jesus My title there I read. I clasp the cross of Jesus In every trying hour, My sure and certain refuge, My never failing tower; In every fear and conflict, I more than conqu’ror am; Living, I’m safe—or dying— Thro’ Christ the risen Lamb.

• [Col 1:20] Sinners, Rejoice: Your Peace Is Made

  Sinners, rejoice: your peace is made; Your Savior on the cross hath bled: Your God, in Jesus reconciled, On all His works again hath smiled; Hath grace through Him and blessing giv’n, To all in earth and all in Heav’n. Angels rejoice in Jesus’ grace, And vie with man’s more favored race; The blood that did for us atone, Conferred on them some gift unknown; Their joy through Jesus’ pains abounds, They triumph by His glorious wounds. Or, stablished and confirmed by Him Who did our lower world redeem, Secure they keep their blest estate, Firm on an everlasting seat; Or, raised above themselves, aspire, In bliss improved, in glory higher. Him they beheld, our conquering God, Returned with garments rolled in blood! They saw, and kindled at the sight, And filled with shouts the realms of light; With loudest hallelujahs met, And fell, and kissed His bleeding feet. They saw Him in the courts above. With all His recent prints of love; The wounds, the blood! they heard its voice, That heightened all their highest joys; They felt it sprinkled through the skies, And shared that better sacrifice. Not angel tongues can e’er express The unutterable happiness; Nor human hearts can e’er conceive The bliss wherein through Christ they live, But all your Heav’n, ye glorious powers, And all your God, is doubly ours!
