Hail To The Lord's Anointed

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #325 (1930) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Processionals and Recessionals 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 and joy, 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 forever; That name to us is Love. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: WESTWOOD
