Hark, a Herald Voice Is Sounding
Author: Edward Caswall (1814-1878) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 133 hymnals Scripture: Luke 3:1-18 Lyrics: 1 Hark, a herald voice is sounding:
"Christ is nigh," it seems to say.

O ye children of the day!"

let the earth-bound soul arise;
Christ, our sun, all sloth dispelling,
shines upon the morning skies.
3 Lo, the Lamb, so long expected,
comes with pardon down from heaven;
let us all, with deep repentance,
pray that we may be forgiven,
4 that when next he comes with glory,
and the world is wrapped in fear,
with his mercy he may shield us,
and with words of love draw near.
5 Honour, glory, might, and blessing
to the Father and the Son,
with the everlasting Spirit,
while eternal ages run. Topics: Advent; John, the Baptist; Repentance Used With Tune: MERTON Text Sources: Latin (10th cent.)
Hark, a Herald Voice Is Sounding
He will gather the wheat in his garner
Author: Harriet B. M'Keever Appears in 30 hymnals Scripture: Luke 3:17 First Line: When Jesus shall gather the nations Lyrics: 1 When Jesus shall gather the nations,
Before him at last to appear,
Then how shall we stand in the Judgment,
When summoned our sentence to hear?
Chorus:
He will gather the wheat in his garner,
But the chaff will he scatter away;
Then how shall we stand in the Judgment
Of the great resurrection day?
2 Shall we hear, from the lips of the Saviour,
The words "Faithful servant, well done,"
Or, trembling with fear and with anguish,
Be banished away from his throne? [Chorus]
3 He will smile when he looks on his children,
And sees on the ransom'd his seal;
He will clothe them in heavenly beauty,
As low at his footstool they kneel. [Chorus]
4 Then let us be watching and waiting
With lamps burning steady and bright;
When the Bridegroom shall call to the wedding
O may we be ready for flight! [Chorus]
5 Thus living with hearts fixed on heaven,
In patience we wait for the time
When the days of our pilgrimage ended,
We'll bask in the presence divine. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Judgment and Second Advent Used With Tune: HE WILL GATHER THE WHEAT IN HIS GARNER

Jakob Hintze
1622 - 1702 Scripture: Luke 3:1 Composer (melody) of "SALZBURG" in Rejoice in the Lord Partly as a result of the Thirty Years' War and partly to further his musical education, Jakob Hintze (b. Bernau, Germany, 1622; d. Berlin, Germany, 1702) traveled widely as a youth, including trips to Sweden and Lithuania. In 1659 he settled in Berlin, where he served as court musician to the Elector of Brandenburg from 1666 to 1695. Hintze is known mainly for his editing of the later editions of Johann Crüger's Praxis Pietatis Melica, to which he contributed some sixty-five of his original tunes.
