How Many Years Has Man Been Driven
Author: John Cennick, 1718-1755 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 30 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How many years has man been driven
Far off from happiness and Heaven?
When wilt Thou, gracious Lord, restore
Thy wandering church, to roam no more?
2 Six thousand years are nearly past
Since Adam from Thy sight was cast;
And ever since, his fallen race,
From age to age, is void of grace.
3 When will the happy trump proclaim
The judgment of the martyred Lamb?
When shall the captive troops be free,
And keep the eternal jubilee!
4 Hasten it, Lord, in every land;
Send Thou thine angels and command,
Go, sound deliverance; loudly blow
Salvation to the saints below.
5 We want to have the day appear!
The promised great sabbatic year,
When, far from grief, and sin, and hell,
Israel in ceaseless peace shall dwell. Used With Tune: WOODWORTH Text Sources: A Selection of Hymns from the Best Authors by John Rippon, 1787

Where Is the Holy Heav'n-Born Child?
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Where is the holy Heav'n-born child Lyrics: 1. Where is the holy Heav’n-born child,
Heir of the everlasting throne,
Who Heav’n and earth hath reconciled,
And God and man rejoined in one?
2. Shall we of earthly kings inquire,
To courts or palaces repair?
The nations’ hope, the world’s desire,
Alas! we cannot find Him there.
3. Shall learning show the sinner’s friend,
Or scribes a sight of Christ afford?
Us to His natal place they send,
But never go to see their Lord.
4. We search the outward Church in vain,
They cannot Him we seek declare,
They have not found the Son of Man,
Or known the sacred name they bear.
5. Then let us turn no more aside,
But use the light Himself imparts,
His Spirit is our surest guide,
His Spirit glimmering in our hearts.
6. Drawn by His grace we come from far,
And fix on Heav’n our wistful eyes,
That ray divine, that orient star
Directs us where the infant lies.
7. See there! the newborn Savior see,
By faith discern the great I AM;
’Tis He! the eternal God! ’tis He
That bears the mild Immanuel’s name.
8. The Prince of Peace on earth is found,
The child is born, the son is giv’n;
Tell it to all the nations round,
Jehovah is come down from Heav’n!
9. Jehovah is come down to raise
His dying creatures from their fall,
And all may now receive the grace
Which brings eternal life to all.
10. Lord, we receive the grace and Thee,
With joy unspeakable receive,
And rise Thine open face to see,
And one with God for ever live. Used With Tune: WOODWORTH Text Sources: Hymns for the Nativity of Our Lord (London: William Strahan, 1745), number 17
