People, Look East
Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying
Author: Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878; Philip Nicolai, 1556-1608 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #31 (1978) Topics: Advent 1 Lyrics: 1 Wake, awake, for night is flying,
The watchmen on the heights are crying;
Awake, Jerusalem, at last.
Midnight hears the welcome voices,
And at the thrilling cry rejoices:
"Come forth, you maidens! Night is past.
The bridegroom comes! Awake;
Your lamps with gladness take!"
Alleluia!
Prepare yourselves to meet the Lord,
Whose light has stirred the waiting guard.
2 Zion hears the watchmen singing,
And in her heart new joy is springing.
She wakes, she rises from her gloom,
For her Lord comes down all-glorious,
The strong in grace, in truth victorious.
Her Star is ris'n; her light is come.
Oh, come, you Blessed One,
Lord Jesus, God's own Son.
Sing hosanna!
We go until the halls we view
Where you have bid us dine with you.
3 Now let all the heav'ns adore you,
And saints and angels sing before you.
The harps and cymbals all unite.
Of one pearl each shining portal,
Where, dwelling with the choir immortal,
We gather round your dazzling light.
No eye has seen, no ear
Has yet been trained to hear.
What joy is ours!
Crescendos rise; your halls resound;
Hosannas blend in cosmic sound. Languages: English Tune Title: WACHET AUF

shines upon the morning skies.

comes with pardon down from heaven;
let us haste, with tears of sorrow,
one and all to be forgiven:
4 That, when next he comes in glory
and the world is wrapped in fear
with his mercy he may shield us,
and with words of love draw near.

O bless the God of Israel
Author: Michael Perry (born 1942) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #599 (1987) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Advent 1 The Advent Hope Lyrics: 1 O bless the God of Israel,
who comes to set us free;
who visits and redeems us,
with love for all to see.
The prophets spoke of mercy,
of rescue and release:
God shall fulfill his promise
and bring his people peace.
2 He comes! the Child of David,
the Son whom God has given;
he comes to live among us
and raise us up to heaven:
before him goes his servant —
forerunner in the way,
the prophet of salvation,
the herald of the Day.
3 Where once were fear and darkness,
the sun begins to rise —
the dawning of forgiveness
upon the sinner's eyes.
He guides the feet of pilgrims
along the paths of peace:
O bless our God and Saviour,
with songs that never cease! Scripture: Luke 1:68-79 Languages: English Tune Title: CRÜGER
O bless the God of Israel
Now Is the Time Approaching
Author: Jane Laurie Borthwick Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #609 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Year C Advent 1 Lyrics: 1 Now is the time approaching,
by prophets long foretold,
when all shall dwell together,
secure and manifold.
Let war be learned no longer,
let strife and tumult cease,
all earth a blessed garden
that God shall tend in peace.
2 Let all that now devides us
remove and bass away,
like mists of early morning
before the blaze of day.
Let all that now unites us
more sweet and lasting prove,
a closer bond of union,
in blessed lands of love.
3 O long-expected dawning,
come with your cheering ray!
Yet shall the promise beckon
and lead us not astray.
O sweet anticipation!
It cheers the watchers on
to pray, and hope, and labor
till Christ's new realm is come. Scripture: Isaiah 61:11 Languages: English Tune Title: WEBB
