Rejoice, rejoice, believers!
Author: Laurentius Laurenti; Sarah B. Findlater Hymnal: The Hymnal of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America 1940 #4 (1940) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Advent IV Morning Prayer Closing; Advent IV The Holy Communion Sequence Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, rejoice, believers!
And let your lights appear;
The evening is advancing,
And darker night is near.
The Bridegroom is arising,
And soon he will draw nigh;
Up! watch in expectation!
At midnight comes the cry.
2 See that your lights are burning;
Replenish them with oil;
Look now for your salvation,
The end of sin and toil.
The watchers on the mountain
Proclaim the Bridegroom near,
Go meet him as he cometh,
With alleluias clear.
3 O wise and holy virgins,
Now raise your voices higher,
Until in songs of triumph
Ye meet the angel choir.
The marriage-feast is waiting,
The gates wide open stand;
Up, up, ye heirs of glory!
The Bridegroom is at hand.
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 days of earth's redemption,
And ever be with thee!

to God the Father back he speeds,
runs out his course to death and hell,
returns on God's high throne to dwell.
4 O equal to thy Father, thou!
Gird on thy fleshly mantle now,
the weakness of our mortal state
with deathless might invigorate.

and darkness glow with new-born light,
no more shall night extinguish day,
where love's bright beams their power display.

eternal praise and glory be,
whom with the Father we adore
and Holy Spirit, evermore. Amen. Scripture: 1 John 2:1 Languages: English Tune Title: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR

Author: John Newton, 1725-1806 Hymnal: Common Praise #375 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Advent IV Year B Lyrics: 1 Amazing grace (how sweet the sound)
that saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
was blind, but now I see.
2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
and grace my fears relieved;
how precious did that grace appear
the hour I first believed!

I have already come:
'tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.
4 The Lord has promised good to me,
his word my hope secures;
he will my shield and portion be
as long as life endures.
5 Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
and mortal life shall cease:
I shall possess, within the veil,
a life of joy and peace.
6 The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
the sun forbear to shine;
but God, who called me here below,
will be forever mine. Scripture: 1 Chronicles 17:16 Languages: English Tune Title: AMAZING GRACE

Gaze we on those glorious scars!
