Of loveliest form and grace,
As prophets sung, foreknowing;
It springs from Jesse's race
And bears one little Flow'r
In midst of coldest winter,
At deepest midnight hour.
2 Isaiah hath foretold it
In words of promise sure,
And Mary's arms enfold it,
A virgin meek and pure.
Thro' God's eternal will
This Child to her is given
At midnight calm and still.
3 The shepherds heard the story,
Proclaimed by angels bright,
How Christ, the Lord of Glory,
Was born on earth this night.
To Bethlehem they sped
And in the manger found him,
As angel heralds said.
4 This Flow'r whose fragrance tender
With sweetness fills the air,
Dispels with glorious splendor
The darkness ev'rywhere.
True Man, yet very God;
From sin and death he saves us
And lightens ev'ry load.
5 O Saviour, Child of Mary,
Who felt our human woe;
O Saviour, King of Glory,
Who dost our weakness know,
Bring us at length, we pray,
To the bright courts of heaven
And to the endless day.
Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 11:1 Used With Tune: ES IST EIN' ROS' ENTSPRUNGEN Text Sources: German author unknown, c. 1500

To be baptized by John,
He did not come for pardon,
But as his Father's Son.
2 He came to share repentance
With all who mourn their sins,
To speak the vital sentence
With which good news begins.
3 He came to share temptation,
Our utmost woe and loss;,
For us and our salvation
To die upon the cross.
4 So when the Dove descended
On him, the Son of Man,
The hidden years had ended,
The age of grace began.

What its signs of promise are:
Traveler, o'er yon mountain's height,
See that glory-beaming star!
Watchman, doth 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,
And 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Doubt and terror are withdrawn.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;
Hie thee to thy quiet home.
Traveler, lo, the Prince of Peace,
Lo, the Son of God, is come!
Amen. Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE'S, WINDSOR
Watchman, tell us of the night
