Good News from Heaven, the Angels Bring
Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 41 hymnals First Line: Good news from heaven the angels bring Lyrics: 1. Good news from heaven the angels bring,
Glad tidings to the earth they sing:
To us this day a Child is given,
To crown us with the joy of heaven.
2 This is the Christ, our God and Lord,
Who in all need shall aid afford;
He will Himself our Saviour be,
And from our sins will set us free.
3 To us that blessedness He brings,
Which from the Father's bounty springs:
That in the heavenly realm we may
With Him enjoy eternal day.
4 All hail, Thou noble Guest, this morn,
Whose love did not the sinner scorn:
In my distress Thou com’st to me,
What thanks shall I return to Thee?
5 Were earth a thousand times as fair,
Beset with gold and jewels rare,
She yet were far too poor to be
A narrow cradle, Lord, for Thee.
4 Ah, dearest Jesus, holy Child,
Make Thee a bed, soft, undefiled,
Within my heart, that it may be
A quiet chamber kept for Thee.
7 Praise God upon His heavenly throne,
Who gave to us His only Son;
For this His hosts, on joyful wing,
A blest New Year of mercy sing. Topics: Christmas Used With Tune: VOM HIMMEL HOCH DA KOMM ICH HER
Good News from Heaven, the Angels Bring
Good News From heaven To Earth I Bear
Author: Martin Luther Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Good news from heave'n to earth I bear
And now with you will gladly share;
My story is a joyful lay,
So hear what I shall have to say.
2 This night to you is born a Child,
The chosen Virgin's Infant mild,
And He, a Child of lowly birth,
Shall be the Joy of all the earth.
3 This sign I, too, would have you mark:
the swaddling clothes, the manger dark;
In these the Infant now is laid
By whom both heav'n and earth were made.
4 He is the Christ, our God and Lord,
Whose name we praise with one accord;
Your Savior He has deigned to be,
And from all sin will set you free.
5 Rich gifts He has in store for you,
Prepared by God, our Father true;
In yonder kingdom bright and fair
You shall with us His glory share.
6 Oh, let us then most happy be
And with the shepherds go to see
What blessings God for us has won
By sending us His only Son.
7 To that small crib direct your eyes;
Behold a a gift that angels prize!
Who is this Child so wondrous fair?
The blessed Christ-child lieth there.
8 We welcome Thee, most noble Guest,
Through whom this sinful world is blest.
Thy coming is a boon for me;
What thanks shall I return to Thee?
