Watchman, Tell Us of the Night
Author: John Bowring Hymnal: Worship in Song #58 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Story of Jesus Lyrics: 1 *Watchman, tell us of the night,
What its signs of promise are:
Traveler, over yon mountain's height,
See that glory beaming star.
Watchman, does its beauteous ray
Aught of joy or hope foretell?
Traveler, yes; it brings the day,
Promised day of Israel.
2 Watchman, tell us of the night,
Higher yet that star ascends;
Traveler, blessedness and light,
Peace and truth its course portends.
Watchman, will its beams alone
Gild the spot that gave them birth?
Traveler, ages are its own;
See it bursts over all the earth.
3 Watchman, tell us of the night,
For the morning seems to dawn:
Traveler, darkness takes its flight,
Doubt and terror are withdrawn.
Watchman, let thy wanderings cease;
Hie thee to thy quiet home:
Traveler, lo, the Prince of Peace,
Lo, the Son of God is come.
*Watcher, Guardian Scripture: Isaiah 21:11-12 Tune Title: ABERYSTWYTH
Watchman, Tell Us of the Night
There's a Voice in the Wilderness
Author: James Lewis Milligan Hymnal: Worship in Song #59 (1996) Topics: Story of Jesus First Line: There's a voice in the wilderness crying Lyrics: 1 There’s a voice in the wilderness crying,
A call from the ways untrod:
Prepare in the desert a highway,
A highway for our God!
The valleys shall be exalted,
The lofty hills brought low;
Make straight all the crooked places,
Where the Lord our God may go!
2 O Zion, that bringest good tidings,
Get thee up to the heights and sing!
Proclaim to a desolate people
The coming of their King.
Like the flow'rs of the field they perish,
The works of men decay,
The power and pomp of nations
Shall pass like a dream away.
3 But the word of our God endureth,
The arm of the Lord is strong;
He stands in the midst of nations,
And he will right the wrong.
He shall feed his flock like a shepherd,
And fold the lambs to his breast;
In pastures of peace he’ll lead them,
And give to the weary rest. Scripture: Isaiah 40:3-11 Tune Title: ASCENSION
There's a Voice in the Wilderness

I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
Author: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Hymnal: Worship in Song #76 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Story of Jesus Lyrics: 1 I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old familiar carols play;
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace of earth, good will to men.
2 I thought how as the day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along the unbroken song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.
3 And in despair I bowed my head,
There is no peace on earth, I said,
For hate is strong, and mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.
4 Then pealed the bells more loud and deep,
God is not dead, and doth not sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail
With peace on earth, good will to men.
5 Till ringing, singing on its way
The world revolved from night to day,
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime,
Of peace on earth, good will to men. Languages: English Tune Title: BELLS
I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
Brightest and Best
Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: Worship in Song #77 (1996) Topics: Story of Jesus First Line: Hail the blest morn! See the Great Mediator Refrain First Line: Brightest and best of the sons of the morning Lyrics: 1 Hail the blest morn! See the Great Mediator
Down from the regions of glory descend!
Shepherds, go worship the babe in the manger;
Lo, for a guard the bright angels attend.
Refrain:
Brightest and best of the sons of the morning,
Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid;
Star of the East, the horizon adorning,
Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
2 Cold on his cradle the dewdrops are shining,
Low lies his head with the beasts of the stall;
Angels adore him in slumber reclining,
Maker and Monarch and Savior of all. [Refrain]
3 Shall we not yield him in costly devotion,
Odors of Eden, and offerings divine,
Gems of the mountain, and pearls of the ocean,
Myrrh from the forest, and gold from the mine? [Refrain]
4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation,
Vainly with gifts would his favor secure;
Richer by far is the heart's adoration,
Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor. [Refrain] Tune Title: STAR OF THE EAST
Brightest and Best
O Little Town of Bethlehem
Author: Phillips Brooks Hymnal: Worship in Song #87 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Story of Jesus 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 men 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! Scripture: Luke 2:4-8 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. LOUIS
O Little Town of Bethlehem
We Three Kngs of Orient Are
Author: John H. Hopkins Hymnal: Worship in Song #95 (1996) Topics: Story of Jesus First Line: We three kings of Orient are Refrain First Line: O star of wonder, star of night Lyrics: 1 We three kings of Orient are;
Bearing gifts we traverse afar,
Field and fountain, moor and mountain,
Following yonder star.
Refrain:
O star of wonder, star of night,
Star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to thy perfect light.
2 Born a King on Bethlehem’s plain,
Gold I bring to crown him again,
King forever, ceasing never,
Over us all to reign. [Refrain]
3 Frankincense to offer have I,
Incense owns a Deity nigh;
Prayer and praising, all men raising,
Worship him, God on high. [Refrain]
4 Myrrh is mine its bitter perfume
Breathes a life of gathering gloom,
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,
Sealed in the stone cold tomb. [Refrain]
5 Glorious now behold him arise,
King and God and Sacrifice;
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Sound thro' the earth and skies. [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 2:1-13 Languages: English Tune Title: KINGS OF ORIENT
We Three Kngs of Orient Are
O Young and Fearless Prophet
Author: S. Ralph Harlow Hymnal: Worship in Song #98 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Story of Jesus First Line: O young and fearless Prophet of ancient Galilee Lyrics: 1 O young and fearless Prophet of ancient Galilee:
your life is still a summons to serve humanity,
to make our thoughts and actions less prone to please the crowd,
to stand with humble courage for truth with hearts unbowed.
2 O help us stand unswerving against war's bloody way,
where hate and lust and falsehood hold back your holy sway;
forbid false love of country, that turns us from your call
who lifts above the nation the neighborhood of all.
3 Create in us the splendor that dawns when hearts are kind,
that knows not race nor station as boundaries of the mind;
that learns to value beauty, in heart, or mind, or soul,
and longs to see God's children as sacred, perfect, whole.
4 Stir up in us a protest against unneeded wealth;
for some go starved and hungry who plead for work and health.
Once more give us your challenge above our noisy day,
and come to lead us forward along your holy way. Tune Title: MEIRONYDD
O Young and Fearless Prophet
