Altamente os Céus Proclamam

Author: John Newton (1725-1807) Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Altamente os céus proclamam Seu divino Criador Anuncia o firmamento Tuas obras, ó Senhor! Incessantes, noite e dia Dão sinais do Teu poder, Sem palavras proclamando: “Deus é excelso no saber”. 2. Majestoso, o Sol caminha Pelos céus com resplendor, Exultando em seu percurso, Enche o mundo de calor! Tua lei, quão preciosa! Brilha mais que a clara luz, Esclarece as nossas mentes, Guia as almas a Jesus. 3. Eis as fontes cristalinas D’águas vivas a jorrar: Nelas podem vir Teus filhos Sua sede saciar. Que felizes habitantes Viverão p’ra sempre ali! Ó, que paz, que alegria Há de ser, Sião, em Ti! Used With Tune: [Altamente os céus proclamam]

Let Us All With Grateful Praises

Author: Joseph Hart, 1712-1768 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let us all with grateful praises Celebrate the happy day, When the lovely, loving Jesus First partook of human clay: When the heavenly host assembled, Gazed with wonder from the sky: Angels joyed and devils trembled, Neither fully knowing why. 2 Long had Satan reigned imperious, Till the woman’s promised seed, Born a babe by birth mysterious, Came to bruise the serpent’s head. Crush, dear Babe, his power within us, Break our chains, and set us free. Pull down all the bars between us, ’Till we fly, and cleave to Thee. 3 Shepherds on their flocks attending, Shepherds that in nighttime watched, Saw the messenger descending From the court of Heav’n dispatched. Beams of glory decked his mission, Bursting through the veil of night. Fear possessed them at the vision: Sinners tremble at the light. 4 Dove-like meekness graced his visage; Joy and love shone round his head. Soon he cheered them with his message: Comfort flowed from all he said. “Fear not, favorites of th’Almighty, Joyful news to you I bring. You have now, in David’s city, Born, a Savior, Christ the King. 5 "Go and find the royal Stranger By these signs. A babe you’ll see, Weak, and lying in a manger, Wrapped and swaddled; that is He." Straight a host of angels glorious Round the heav’nly herald throng, Utt’ring, in harmonious chorus, Airs divine, this the song— 6 "Glory first to God be given In the highest heights; and then Peace on earth, proclaimed by Heaven, Peace, and great good will to men." Thus they sang, with rapture kindling In the shepherds’ hearts a flame, Joy and wonder sweetly mingling: All believers feel the same. 7 Lo, sweet Babe, we fall before Thee. Jesus, Thee we all adore. To Thee, kingdom, power and glory, We ascribe forevermore. Glory to our God be given In the highest heights; and then Peace on earth brought down from Heaven, Peace, and great good will to men.
