Zion, awake and brighten!
Author: Martin Opitz; Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett, D. D. Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Zion, awake and brighten!
Lo, day begins to lighten,
Thy Light draws nigh to thee;
The brightness of His glory,
The morn of Prophets' story,
Now shines around and over thee.
2 Though earth is yet beclouded,
And Gentile nations shrouded
In darkness dense and drear,
The Lord, thy Life, hath blessed thee,
With loving grace caressed thee
And crowned thy brow with honors dear.
3 On this broad earth the nations,
Throughout all generations,
That see the light of day,
Shall learn thy brighter glory;
And men shall haste before thee,
To see thy Light and bless its ray.
4 Behold the surging masses!
Thy Light doth draw all classes,
The world turns unto thee,
Thy fame hath reached their hearing,
Their sons and daughters, nearing,
Haste at thy shrine to bend the knee.
5 Thy heart shall leap within thee
when thou shalt see th'assembly,
Th'abundance of the sea;
Thine eyes shall feast on courses
Of myriad Gentile forces,
That come converted unto thee.
6 There are glad delegations
From Ephah and far nations,
And clouds from Midian;
With gold shall Saba cheer thee,
And incense; all that near thee
Shall sing thy praise, O chosen One! Topics: The Church Year Epiphany; Second Sunday of Advent Used With Tune: INNSPRUCK (New) (Nun ruhen alle Wälder)

Oft as we run the weary way
O world, I must now leave thee
Author: Johann Hesse; Catherine Winkworth Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O world, I now must leave thee,
But little doth it grieve me,
I seek my native land;
True life I there inherit,
And here I yield my spirit
With joy to God's all-gracious hand.
2 So on His Word relying,
I know, while I am dying
I soon shall see His face,
Through Christ whose death hath bought me;
The Father's love He brought me,
And now prepares for me a place.
3 The grave hath lost its terrors,
Since for my sins and errors,
My Savior did atone:
My works can nought avail me,
But His work cannot fail me,
I rest in faith on Him alone.
4 And so I hence am going
In peace, full surely knowing
That now I shall have rest:
I feel death's icy finger;
My soul here cannot linger,
Nor would I stay--to go is best.
5 O world, I yet would teach thee
That death will surely reach thee;
Thou too must follow me;
Then ere God's grace forsake thee,
Repent! to Christ betake thee,
That God have mercy too on thee. Topics: Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Contemplation of Death; Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Contemplation of Death Used With Tune: INNSPRUCK (Nun ruhen alle Wälder)

And darkness fast is creeping
O’er byre, hearth, and hall;
But thou, my soul, ere slumber,
For blessings passing number
Exalt the giver of them all.

My friends and kindred nearest,
God rest you safe from harm!
His angel hosts attend ye,
Their golden shields defend ye,
From nightly danger and alarm. Used With Tune: INNSBRUCK Text Sources: Praxis Pietatis Melica, 3rd edition, by Johann Crüger, 1648
