yet to come the mystic Close,
evermore and evermore.

universe of three in one,
all that sees the moon's soft radiance,
all that breathes beneath the sun,

might not perish utterly,
which the dreadful Law had sentenced
in the depths of hell to lie,
evermore and evermore.

when the Maid the curse retrieved,
brought to birth mankind's salvation,
by the Holy Ghost conceived,
and the Babe, the world's Redeemer,
in her loving arms received,
evermore and evermore.
5 This is he, whom seer and sybil
sang in ages long gone by;
this is he of old revealèd
in the page of prophecy;
lo! he comes, the promised Saviour;
let the world his praises cry!
evermore and evermore.
6 Sing, ye heights of heaven, his praises;
Angels and Archangels, sing!
wheresoe'er ye be, ye faithful,
let your joyous anthems ring,
every tongue his name confessing,
countless voices answering,
evermore and evermore. Topics: Angels; Christmas; Church Year Advent; Church Year Christmas; Creation; God in judgement and justice; Mary; Praise; Prophets; The Fourth Sunday of Advent Year A; The Fourth Sunday of Advent Year C Used With Tune: DIVINUM MYSTERIUM

in Jesus find life and salvation.

We Hail Thee Now, O Jesus
Author: Frederick George Scott (1861-1944) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 1:1-4 Lyrics: 1 We hail thee now, O Jesus:
thy presence here we own,
though sight and touch have failed us,
and faith perceives alone.
Thy love has veiled thy glory
and hid thy power divine,
in mercy to our weakness,
beneath an earthly sign.
2 We hail thee now, O Jesus:
in silence hast thou come,
for all the hosts of heaven
with wonderment are dumb --
so great the condescension,
so marvellous the love,
which for our sakes, O Saviour,
have drawn thee from above.
3 We hail thee now, O Jesus:
for law and type have ceased,
and thou in each communion
art sacrifice and priest.
We make this great memorial
in union, Lord, with thee,
and plead thy death and passion
to cleanse and set us free.
4 We hail thee now, O Jesus:
for death is ever near,
and in thy presence only
its terrors disappear.
Dwell with us, sweetest Saviour,
and guide us through the night,
till shadows end in glory.
and faith be lost in sight. Topics: Eucharist; Eucharist; Funeral; Jesus, the Priest; Salvation/Redemption Used With Tune: ST. CHRISTOPHER
We Hail Thee Now, O Jesus
