Break Forth, O Beauteous Heavenly Light

Author: Johann Rist; John Troutbeck; Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Appears in 64 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:8-14 Lyrics: 1 Break forth, O beauteous heavenly light, and usher in the morning; O shepherds, shrink not with affright, but hear the angel's warning. This child, now weak in infancy, our confidence and joy shall be, the power of Satan breaking, our peace eternal making. 2 This night of wonder, night of joy, was born the Christ, our brother; he comes, not mighty to destroy, to bid us love each other. How could he quit his kingly state for such a world of greed and hate? What deep humiliation secured the world's salvation! 3 Come, dearest child, into our hearts, and leave your crib behind you! Let this be where the new life starts for all who seek and find you. To you the honor, thanks, and praise, for all your gifts this time of grace; come, conquer and deliver this world, and us, forever.

Amen.” Topics: Peace and Joy Used With Tune: SUSSEX CAROL Text Sources: Traditional English carol; mod.

Of Jesse's lineage coming As seers of old have sung. It came, a blossom bright, Amid the cold of winter, When half spent was the night. 2 Isaiah 'twas foretold it, The Rose I have in mind, With Mary we behold it, The Virgin Mother kind. To show God's love aright She bore to us a Savior, When half spent was the night. 3 O Flower, whose fragrance tender With sweetness fills the air, Dispel in glorious splendor The darkness ev'rywhere; True man, yet very God, From sin and death now save us, And share our ev'ry load.

Gentle Mary Laid Her Child

Ask the saved of all the race Who have found His favor. 2 Angels sang about His birth; Wise men sought and found Him; Heaven’s star shone brightly forth, Glory all around Him. Shepherds saw the wondrous sight, Heard the angels singing; All the plains were lit that night, All the hills were ringing. 3 Gentle Mary laid her Child Lowly in a manger; He is still the undefiled, But no more a stranger. Son of God, of humble birth, Beautiful the story; Praise His Name in all the earth, Hail the King of glory! Used With Tune: TEMPUS ADEST FLORIDUM
