I love to hear the story
Hymnal: Sunday School Book #27 (1903) Topics: Advent and Christmas Christmas First Line: I love to hear the story Lyrics: 1 I love to hear the story
Which angel voices tell,
How once the King of glory
Came down to earth to dwell.
I am both weak and sinful,
But this I surely know,
The Lord came down to save me,
Because He loved me so.
2 I'm glad my blessed Saviour
Was once a child like me,
To show how pure and holy
His little ones should be;
And if I try to follow
His footsteps here below
He never will forget me,
Because He loves me so.
3 To sing His love and mercy
My sweetest songs I'll raise;
And though I cannot see Him,
I know He hears my praise;
For He has kindly promised
That even I may go
To sing among His angels,
Because He loves me so.
I love to hear the story

Prepare the way, O Zion!
Hymnal: Sunday School Book #13 (1903) Topics: Advent and Christmas Advent Lyrics: 1 Prepare the way, O Zion!
Ye awful deeps, rise high,
Sink low, ye towering mountains,
The Lord is drawing nigh:
The righteous King of glory,
Foretold in sacred story.
Oh, blest is He that came
In God the Father's Name!
2 O Zion, He approacheth,
Thy Lord and King for aye!
Palm-branches strew with gladness
Spread garments in His way.
God's promise faileth never,
Hosianna sound forever!
Oh, blest is He that came
In God the Father's Name!
3 Fling wide thy portals, Zion,
And hail Thy glorious King;
His tidings of salvation
To every people bring,
Who, waiting yet in sadness
Would sing His praise with gladness.
Oh, blest is He that came
In God the Father's Name!
4 He cometh not with warriors,
And not with pomp and show;
Yet smiteth He with terror
Sin, death, and every foe.
The Spirit's sword He wieldeth,
Not e'en to death He yieldeth,
Oh, blest is He that came
In God the Father's Name.
5 Give heed, thou sinful people,
Thy King and Saviour own:
The kingdom which He foundeth
Is not an earthly one;
No power can overthrow it,
Nor earthly wisdom know it.
Oh, blest is He that came
In God the Father's Name!
6 The throne which He ascendeth
Is fixed in heaven above:
His sanctified dominion
Is light alone and love.
With grace and peace abounding
His praise be ever sounding.
Oh, blest is He that came
In God the Father's Name!
7 Jerusalem is fallen,
And closed its temple-door;
Its sacrifices ended;
Its scepter is no more.
Christ's kingdom never ceaseth,
Its glory still increaseth.
Oh, blest is He that came
In God the Father's Name!
Prepare the way, O Zion!
Rejoice, all ye believers
Hymnal: Sunday School Book #14 (1903) Topics: Advent and Christmas Advent Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, all ye believers,
And let your lights appear!
The evening is advancing,
The 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 for ever,
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!
Rejoice, all ye believers
Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Hymnal: Sunday School Book #15 (1903) Topics: Advent and Christmas Advent 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 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 For 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.
Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Oh! how shall I receive Thee?
Hymnal: Sunday School Book #16 (1903) Topics: Advent and Christmas Advent First Line: Oh! how shall I receive Thee Lyrics: 1 Oh! how shall I receive Thee,
How greet Thee, Lord, aright?
All nations long to see Thee,
My hope, my heart's Delight!
Oh, kindle, Lord, most holy,
Thy lamp within my breast,
To do in spirit, lowly,
All that will please Thee best.
2 Thy Zion palms is strewing.
And branches fresh and fair;
My heart, its powers renewing,
An anthem shall prepare.
My souls puts off her sadness
Thy glories 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
Procured my liberty.
Oh, 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.
Oh! how shall I receive Thee?
O'er the distant mountains breaking
Hymnal: Sunday School Book #17 (1903) Topics: Advent and Christmas Advent First Line: O'er the distant mountains breaking Lyrics: 1 O'er the distant mountains breaking
Comes the reddening dawn of day;
Rise, my soul, from sleep awaking,
Rise, and sing, and watch, and pray;
'Tis Thy Saviour, 'Tis Thy Saviour,
On His bright returning way.
2 O Thou long-expected! Wear
Waits my anxious soul for Thee;
Life is dark, and earth is dreary,
Where Thy light I do not see;
O my Saviour, O my Saviour,
When wilt Thou return to me?
3 Nearer is my soul's salvation,
Spent the night, the day at hand;
Keep me in my lowly station,
Watching for Thee, till I stand,
O my Saviour, O my Saviour,
In Thy bright and promsied land.
4 With my lamp, well trimmed and burning,
Swift to hear and slow to roam,
Watching for Thy glad returning,
To restore me to my home.
Come, my Saviour, Come, my Saviour,
Thou hast promised; quickly come.
O'er the distant mountains breaking
Good News From Heaven the Angels Bring
Author: Martin Luther Hymnal: Lutherförbundets Sångbok #E11 (1913) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Advent and Christmas First Line: Good news from heav'n the angels bring Lyrics: 1 Good news from heav'n the angels bring,
Glad tidings to the earth they sing:
To us this day a Child is giv'n,
To crown us with the joy of heav'n.
2 This is the Christ, our God and Lord,
Who in all need shall aid afford;
He will Himself our Saviour be,
And from our sins will set us free.
3 To us that blessedness He brings,
Which from the Father's bounty springs:
That in the heav'nly realm we may
With Him enjoy eternal day.
4 All hail, Thou noble Guest, this morn,
Whose love did not the sinner scorn:
In my distress Thou com'st to me,
What thanks shall I return to Thee?
5 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.
6 Ah, dearest Jesus, holy Child,
Make Thee a bed, soft, undefiled,
Within my heart, that it may be
A quiet chamber kept for Thee.
7 Praise God upon His heavenly throne,
Who gave to us His only Son;
For this His hosts, on joyful wing,
A blest New Year of mercy sing. Languages: English Tune Title: VOM HIMMEL HOCH DA KOMM ICH HER
