O Little Town of Bethlehem

Author: Phillips Brooks, 1835-1893 Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #180 (2003) Meter: 8.6.8.6.7.6.8.6 Scripture: Matthew 1:23 Lyrics: 1 O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie! Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by. Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting Light; the hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight. 2 For Christ is born of Mary, and gathered all above, while mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wondering love, O morning stars, together proclaim the holy birth, and praises sing to God the King, and peace to all on earth. 3 How silently, how silently the wondrous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of his heaven. No ear may hear his coming, but in this world of sin, where meek souls will receive him still the dear Christ enters in. 4 O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray; cast out our sin, and enter in; be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. LOUIS

Hail to the Lord's Anointed

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #263 (1995) Scripture: Matthew 1:23 First Line: Hail to the Lord's anointed! Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's anointed! Great David’s greater Son! Hail, in the time appointed, his reign on earth begun! He comes to break oppression, to set the captive free, to take away transgression, and rule in equity. 2 He comes with rescue speedy to those who suffer wrong, to help the poor and needy and bid the weak be strong, to give them songs for sighing, their darkness turn to light, whose souls, condemned and dying, were precious in his sight. 3 He shall come down like showers upon the fruitful earth, and love, joy, and hope, like flowers, spring in his path to birth; before him on the mountains shall Peace, the herald, go; and righteousness, in fountains, from hill to valley flow.
