How Brightly Shines the Morning Star

Author: Johann Adolph Schlegel, 1721-1793; Philipp Nicolai (1556-1608); John Morrison Sloan Hymnal: The Christian Hymnary #111 (1972) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.7.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 How brightly shines the morning star, With mercy beaming from afar, The host of heav'n rejoices; O righteous branch, O Jesse's rod, Thou Son of Man and Son of God, We, too, will lift our voices. Jesus, Jesus, Holy holy, yet most lowly, Draw Thou near us, Great Immanuel, come and hear us. 2 Rejoice ye heav'ns; thou earth reply; With praise, ye sinners, fill the sky, For this His incarnation. Incarnate God, put forth Thy power, Ride on, ride on, great conqueror, Till all know Thy salvation. Amen, Amen, Hallelujah, hallelujah, Praise be given Evermore by earth and heaven.

Lord, be near us; Great Emmanuel! Come and hear us. 2 Though circled by the hosts on high, He deigned to turn 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 your merit, to inherit Your salvation. Hear, O hear our supplication. 3 Rejoice, O heav'ns, and earth, reply! With praise all voices fill the sky! For this great incarnation!
