Author: John Cawood Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 722 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 Hark, what mean those holy voices Sweetly sounding thro' the skies? Lo, th' angelic host rejoices; Heav'nly hallelujahs rise. Listen to the wondrous story, Which they chant in hymns of joy: Glory in the highest, glory! Glory be to God most high! 2 Peace on earth, good-will from heaven, Reaching far as man is found; Souls redeemed, and sins forgiven; Loud our golden harps shall sound. Christ is born, the great Anointed; Heav'n and earth His praises sing! O receive whom God appointed For your Prophet, Priest and King. 3 Hasten, mortals, to adore Him; Learn His name and taste His joy; Till in heav'n ye sing before Him, Glory be to God most high! Let us learn the wondrous story Of our great Redeemer's birth; Spread the brightness of His glory Till it cover all the earth. Amen.

See the Paraclete Descending

Appears in 24 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 See the Paraclete descending, Burning with celestial fire; Grace and truth on him attending, Men with heav'nly love inspire. Chorus: Let us, Allleluias singing, Offer Him our grateful lays. He all heav'nly graces bringing, Merits everlasting praise. 3 Men in every danger fearing, Now the greatest dangers scorn; Amidst tortures persevering, Show themselves in Christ new-born. [Chorus] 4 Fishermen, by Thee instructed, Jesus, to the world proclaim; Infants, by Thy grace conducted, Rather die than slight His name. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [See the Paraclete descending]
