This Little Babe So Few Days Old
Author: Robert Southwell, 1561-95 Hymnal: Worship Supplement #717 (1969) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Year Christmastide Lyrics: 1 This little Babe so few days old
Is come to rifle Satan's fold;
All hell doth at his presence quake,
Though he himself for cold do shake;
For in this weak unarmed wise
The gates of hell he will surprise.
2 With tears he fights and wins the field
His naked breast stands for a shield;
His battering shot are babish cries,
His arrows looks of weeping eyes,
His martial ensigns Cold and Need,
And feeble Flesh his warrior's steed.
3 His camp is pitchèd in a stall,
His bulwark but a broken wall;
The crib his trench, haystalks his stakes;
Of shepherds he his muster makes;
And thus, as sure his foe to wound,
The angels' trumps alarum sound.
4 My soul, with Christ join thou in fight;
Stick to His tents that he hath pight.*
Within his crib is surest ward;
This little Babe will be thy Guard.
If thou wilt foil thy foes with joy,
Then flit not from this heavenly Boy.

Lo, He Comes with Clouds Descending
Author: Charles Wesley; John Cennick Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #100 (2010) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: God the Son Christmastide; Christian Year-Advent; Jesus Christ-Return Lyrics: 1 Lo, He comes with clouds descending,
once for favored sinners slain;
thousand thousand saints attending
swell the triumph of His train:
Alleluia, alleluia!
God appears on earth to reign.
2 Every eye shall now behold Him,
robed in splendor's majesty;
those who set at naught and sold Him,
pierced and nailed Him to the tree,
deeply wailing, deeply wailing,
shall the true Messiah see.
3 Now the Savior, long expected,
see, in solemn pomp appear;
all who have not Him rejected
now shall meet Him in the air:
Alleluia, alleluia!
See the day of God appear.
4 Now, amen, we sing Your victory,
high on Your eternal throne;
Savior, take the power and glory,
claim the kingdom for Your own:
O, come quickly, O, come quickly!
Everlasting God, come down. Scripture: Revelation 1:7 Languages: English Tune Title: WESNATE
Lo, He Comes with Clouds Descending
