Wake! the Welcome Day Appeareth

Author: J. A. Freylinghausen, 1670-1739 ; F. E. Cox, 1812-97 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #95 (1996) Meter: 8.8.7.7.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Wake! the welcome day appeareth, How with joy our hearts it cheereth! Wake, the Lord's great year behold! That which holy men of old, Those who throng the sacred pages, Waited for through countless ages; Alleluia! Alleluia! 2 Patriarchs and priests aspiring, Kings and prophets long desiring, Saw not this before they died: Lo, the sight to them denied! See His beams to earth directed! Welcome, O Thou long-expected! Alleluia! Alleluia! 3 He, the Savior sent by heaven, Once through fiath to Abram given, Israel's Son and glorious King, Hope to which the Gentiles cling, Now on earth with men abiding, Comes to Zion meekly riding: Alleluia! Alleluia! 4 Lo! He comes, a victim willing, All His Father's will fulfilling; He will, through His precious blood, All things once again make good, Pain and shame of death sustaining, What was lost with joy regaining; Alleluia! Alleluia! 5 In our stead Himself He offers, On the cursed tree He suffers, That His death's sweet savor may Take our curse of aye away, Cross and curse for us enduring, Hope and heav'n to us securing; Alleluia! Alleluia! 6 Moses' law no longer rules us, Christ's free Spirit gently schools us; Ended now our captive thrall; He who heeds God's gracious call, Through his Savior's death and merit, Now enjoys adoption's spirit; Alleluia! Alleluia! 7 Rent the temple curtain's center, Fearless we may boldly enter, Through the veil, the holy place, There to stand before His face; He who once came down from heaven, Fear from all our breasts hath driven; Alleluia! Alleluia! 8 Hence thy King, O Zion, praising, Heart and voice to Him upraising, Shout with joy, thou royal heir In His kingdom thou wilt share; Come, thyself as off'ring bringing, Come, thou Bride, forever singing Alleluia! Alleluia! Topics: Jesus, The Coming King; Advent 1 Scripture: Romans 13:11-14 Languages: English Tune Title: OP, THI DAGEN NU FREMBRYDER

Wake! The Welcome Day Appeareth

Author: Johann A. Freylinghausen; Frances E. Cox Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16798 First Line: Wake! the wel­come day ap­pear­eth Lyrics: 1 Wake! the wel­come day ap­pear­eth, How with joy our hearts its cheer­eth! Wake! the Lord’s great year be­hold! That which ho­ly men of old, Those who throng the sac­red pag­es, Waited for through count­less ag­es; Hal­le­lu­jah! Hal­le­lu­jah! 2 Now the wished for morn­ing break­eth; Hark! how Si­on’s daugh­ter wak­eth Shouts of joy and ju­bi­lee, Thus His ad­vent-dawn to see: King and Bride­groom she en­thrones Him, Though ’tis but a rem­nant owns Him; Hal­le­lu­jah! Hal­le­lu­jah! 3 Patriarchs erst and priests as­pir­ing, Kings and pro­phets long de­sir­ing, Saw not this be­fore they died: Lo! the Light to them de­nied! See its beams to earth di­rect­ed! Welcome, O Thou long-ex­pect­ed! Hal­le­lu­jah! Hal­le­lu­jah! 4 He, the Sav­ior sent by Heav­en, Once through faith to Abram giv­en, Israel’s Son and glor­ious King, Hope to which the hea­then cling, Now on earth with men ab­id­ing, Comes to Zi­on meek­ly rid­ing; Hal­le­lu­jah! Hal­le­lu­jah! 5 Lo! He comes, a vic­tim will­ing, All His Father’s will ful­fill­ing; He will, through His pre­cious blood, All things once again make good, Pain and shame of death sus­tain­ing, What was lost with joy re­gain­ing; Hal­le­lu­jah! Hal­le­lu­jah! 6 In our stead Him­self He of­fers, On th’ac­curs­èd tree He suf­fers, That His death’s sweet sa­vor may Take our curse for aye away, Cross and curse for us en­dur­ing, Hope and Heav’n to us se­cur­­ing; Hal­le­lu­jah! Hal­le­lu­jah! 7 Moses’ law no long­er rules us, Christ’s free Spir­it gent­ly schools us; Ended now our cap­tive thrall, He who God ob­eys in all, Through His Sav­ior’s death and mer­it, Now en­joys ad­opt­ion’s spir­it; Hal­le­lu­jah! Hal­le­lu­jah! 8 Rent the tem­ple cur­tain’s cen­ter, Fearless each may strive to en­ter, Through the veil, the ho­ly place, There to stand be­fore His face; He who once came down from Heav­en, Fear from all our breasts hath driv­en; Hal­le­lu­jah! Hal­le­lu­jah! 9 Therefore, songs tri­umph­ant rais­ing, Zion, still your King be prais­ing, Praises sing with mouth and heart, In His reign thou’lt bear thy part; Come, thy­self as of­fer­ing bring­ing, Come, thou Bride, for ev­er sing­ing, Hal­le­lu­jah! Hal­le­lu­jah! Languages: English Tune Title: OP, THI DAGEN NU FREMBRYDER
