Comfort, Comfort You My People
Author: Johannes G. Olearius; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: PH1990 #3 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Comfort, comfort you my people,
Tell of peace, thus saith our God;
Comfort those who sit in darkness
Bowed beneath oppression's load.
Speak ye to Jerusalem
Of the peace that waits for them;
Tell them that their sins I cover,
And their warfare now is over.
2 For the herald's voice is crying
In the desert far and near,
Bidding us to make repentance
Since the kingdom now is here.
O that warning cry obey!
Now prepare for God a way;
Let the valleys rise in meeting
And the hills bow down in greeting.
3 Make ye straight what long was crooked,
Make the rougher places plain:
Let your hearts be true and humble,
As befits God's holy reign,
For the glory of the Lord
Now o'er earth is shed abroad;
And all flesh shall see the token
That God's word is never broken.

Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence
Hymnal: PH1990 #5 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
And with fear and trembling stand;
Ponder nothing earthly minded,
For with blessing in His hand,
Christ our God to earth descendeth,
Our full homage to demand.
2 King of kings, yet born of Mary,
As of old on earth He stood,
Lord of lords, in human vesture,
In the body and the blood;
He will give to all the faithful
His own self for heavenly food.
3 Rank on rank the host of heaven
Spreads its vanguard on the way,
As the Light of Light descendeth
From the realms of endless day,
That the powers of hell may vanish
As the darkness clears away.
4 At His feet the six-winged seraph;
Cherubim, with sleepless eye,
Veil their faces to the presence,
As with ceaseless voice they cry,
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia, Lord Most High!

The day of earth's redemption,
And ever be with Thee!

All generations praise continually,
Your Son shall be Emmanuel, by seers foretold."

In Bethlehem, all on a Christmas morn,
And Christian folk throughout the world will ever say:
Most highly favored lady, Gloria!

To a Maid Engaged to Joseph
Author: Gracia Grindal Hymnal: PH1990 #19 (1990) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 To a maid engaged to Joseph,
The angel Gabriel came.
“Fear not,” the angel told her,
“I come to bring good news,
Good news I come to tell you,
Good news, I say, good news.
2 “For you are highly favored
By God, the Lord of all,
Who even now is with you.
You are on earth most blest,
You are most blest, most blessèd,
God chose you, you are blest!”
3 But Mary was most troubled
To hear the angel’s word.
What was the angel saying?
It troubled her to hear,
To hear the angel’s message,
It troubled her to hear.
4 “Fear not, for God is with you,
And you shall bear a child.
His name shall be called Jesus,
God’s offspring from on high.
And He shall reign forever,
Forever reign on high.”
5 “How shall this be?” said Mary,
“I am not yet a wife.”
The angel answered quickly,
“The power of the Most High
Will come upon you shortly;
Your child will be God’s child.”
6 As Mary heard the angel,
She wondered at his words.
“Behold, I am your handmaid,”
She said unto her God.
“So be it; I am ready
According to your Word.”

Watchman, Tell Us of the Night
Author: John Bowring Hymnal: PH1990 #20 (1990) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Watchman, tell us of the night,
What its signs of promise are.
Traveler, o'er yon mountain's height,
See that glory-beaming star.
Watchman, does its beauteous ray
Aught of joy or hope foretell?
Traveler, yes; it brings the day,
Promised day of Israel.
2 Watchman, tell us of the night;
Higher yet that star ascends.
Traveler, blessedness and light,
Peace and truth its course portends.
Watchman, will its beams alone
Gild the spot that gave them birth?
Traveler, ages are its own;
See, it bursts o'er all the earth.
3 Watchman, tell us of the night,
For the morning seems to dawn.
Traveler, darkness takes its flight,
Doubt and terror are withdrawn.
Watchman, let thy wanderings cease;
Hasten to your quiet home.
Traveler, lo! the Prince of Peace,
Lo! the Son of God is come!
