Oh! How Shall I Receive Thee?

Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-1676 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #9 (1901) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D 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 may please Thee best. 2 Thy Zion palms is strewing, And branches fresh and fair; My heart, its powers renewing. An anthem shall prepare. My soul 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. Amen. Topics: Advent Languages: English Tune Title: O, DU MITT HJÄRTAS TRÄNGTAN

We Walk Today in Darkness

Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Hymnal: Sing Justice! Do Justice! #10 (1998) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: We walk today in darkness, each waiting for the light of Love that works for justice and seeks to make things right. We wait, sometimes forgetting we do not wait alone, that others long for justice and blessings yet unknown. We walk today in darkness, our purpose unfulfilled. We do not do for others the good that God has willed. We do not offer kindness to those who wait in need, nor justice to our neighbors in every word and deed. We walk today in darkness, our vain hearts filled with shame. We follow our own footsteps and not the Spirit's flame. Self-love bedims our vision, self-interest clouds our sight, and good intentions vanish like shadows in the night. Lord Jesus, light our darkness; with joy dispel our gloom. Prepare us to receive you, and in our lives make room for humble, loving-kindness, for just and honest ways, that we might walk together in Love-illumined days.

As Rachel Mourned the Children

Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Hymnal: Come Away with Me #11 (1998) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: As Rachel mourned her children Lyrics: As Rachel mourned her children King Herod sent to die, good people stood there, silent, and no one questioned why, why children had to suffer to save a king his throne, why people stood by watching, and let them die alone. In every town and city the Herods of our day ignore the needs of children, so they can have their way. Good people still stand silent, few dare to pay the price; and mothers still are weeping at each new sacrifice. Above their cries of anguish a child's voice can be heard, the stable-child of Mary, God's living, loving Word: "Your children thirst and hunger. Now, tell us, tell us why You let the Herods triumph And sentence us to die?" Forgive us, Holy Jesus, we did not see you there among the countless children committed to our care. Stir us to break our silence to give your love a voice, till every weeping mother has reason to rejoice.
