Hail to the Lord who comes
Author: John Ellerton (1826-1893) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #110 (2013) Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Hymnal Title: Ancient and Modern Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord who comes,
comes to his temple gate,
not with his angel host,
not in his kingly state:
no shouts proclaim him nigh,
no crowds his coming wait.
2 But borne upon the throne
of Mary's gentle breast,
watched by her duteous love,
in her fond arms at rest;
thus to his Father's house
he comes, the heavenly guest.
3 There Joseph at her side
in reverent wonder stands;
and, filled with holy joy,
old Simeon in his hands
takes up the promised child,
the glory of all lands.
4 Hail to the great First-born,
whose ransom-price they pay,
the Son before all worlds,
the child of man to-day,
that he might ransom us
who still in bondage lay.
5 O Light of all the earth,
thy children wait for thee:
come to thy temples here,
that we, from sin set free,
before thy Father's face
may all presented be. Topics: Atonement; Light; Mary; Other Saints and Festivals The Presentation of Christ in the Temple (Candlemas); The Fourth Sunday of Epiphany Year C; The Presentation of Christ in the Temple Scripture: Malachi 3:1 Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 120TH
