Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: Common Praise #87 (2000) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Scripture: Jeremiah 33:10-21 Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed,
great David's greater Son!
hail, in the time appointed,
his reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
to set the captive free,
to take away transgression,
and rule in equity.
2 He comes with succour speedy
to those who suffer wrong;
to help the poor and needy,
and bid the weak be strong;
to give them songs for sighing,
their darkness turn to light,
whose souls, condemned and dying,
were precious in his sight.
3 He shall come down like showers
upon the fruitful earth,
and love, joy, hope, like flowers,
spring in his path to birth:
before him on the mountains
shall peace, the herald, go;
and righteousness in fountains
from hill to valley flow.
4 Arabia's desert-ranger
to him shall bow the knee;
the Ethiopian stranger
his glory come to see;
with offerings of devotion
ships from the isles shall meet,
to pour the wealth of ocean
in tribute at his feet.
5 Kings shall bow down before him,
and gold and incense bring;
all nations shall adore him,
his praise all people sing:
to him shall prayer unceasing
and daily vows ascend;
his kingdom still increasing,
a kingdom without end.
6 O'er every foe victorious,
he on his throne shall rest;
from age to age more glorious,
all-blessing and all-blest:
the tide of time shall never
his covenant remove;
his name shall stand for ever,
his changeless name of love. Topics: Epiphany; Advent II Year B; Advent II Year C; Baptism of Christ Year B; Epiphany III Year B; Epiphany IV Year C; Proper 24 Year C Languages: English Tune Title: CRÜGER

How Bright Appears the Morning Star
How Lovely Shines the Morning Star!
Author: Philipp Nicolai Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #296 (2018) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.4.4.4.4.8 Scripture: Jeremiah 33:14-16 Lyrics: 1 How lovely shines the Morning Star!
The nations see and hail afar
the light in Judah shining.
Thou David's Son of Jacob's race,
my bridegroom and my King of grace,
for thee my heart is pining.
Lowly, holy,
great and glorious,
thou victorious
Prince of graces,
filling all the heav'nly places.
2 Though circled by the hosts on high,
he deigned to cast a pitying eye
upon his helpless creature;
the whole creation's head and Lord,
by highest seraphim adored,
assumed our very nature.
Jesus, grant us,
through thy merit
to inherit
thy salvation;
hear, O hear our supplication.
3 Now richly to my waiting heart,
O thou, my God, deign to impart
the grace of love undying.
In thy blest body let me be,
e'en as the branch is in the tree,
thy life my life supplying.
Sighing, crying,
for the savor
of thy favor;
resting never
till I rest in thee forever.
4 Thou, mighty Father, in thy Son
didst love me ere thou hadst begun
this ancient world's foundation.
Thy Son hath made a friend of me,
and when in spirit him I see,
I joy in tribulation.
What bliss is this!
He that liveth
to me giveth
life forever;
nothing me from him can sever.
5 Rejoice, ye heav'ns; thou earth reply;
with praise, ye sinners, fill the sky,
for this his incarnation.
Incarnate God, put forth thy pow'r,
ride on, ride on, great conqueror
till all know thy salvation.
Amen, Amen!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Praise be given
evermore by earth and heaven. Topics: Christ advent of; Christ As Bridegroom; Christ Exaltation of; Christ As Friend; Christ As Son of David; Election Languages: English Tune Title: WIE SCHÖN LEUCHTET
