for His bed a cattle stall;
oxen lowing, little knowing
Christ the Babe is Lord of all.
Swift are winging, angels singing,
noels ringing, tidings bringing:
Christ the Babe is Lord of all,
Christ the Babe is Lord of all.
2 Flocks were sleeping, shepherds keeping
vigil till the morning new
saw the glory, heard the story,
tidings of a gospel true.
Thus rejoicing, free from sorrow,
praises voicing greet the morrow:
Christ the Babe is Lord of all,
Christ the Babe is Lord of all.

Christ Is Risen! Shout Hosanna!
Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: CGH2010 #206 (2010) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Tune Title: W ZLOBIE LEZY Lyrics: 1 Christ is risen! Shout hosanna!
Celebrate this day of days!
Christ is risen! Hush in wonder;
all creation is amazed.
In the desert all-surrounding,
see, a spreading tree has grown.
Healing leaves of grace abounding
bring a taste of love unknown.
2 Christ is risen! Raise your spirits
from the caverns of despair.
Walk with gladness in the morning.
See what love can do and dare.
Drink the wine of resurrection,
not a servant, but a friend;
Jesus is our strong companion.
Joy and peace shall never end.
3 Christ is risen! Earth and heaven
nevermore shall be the same.
Break the bread of new creation
where the world is still in pain.
Tell its grim, demonic chorus:
“Christ is risen! Get you gone!”
God the first and last is with us.

My Soul Proclaims with Wonder

the greatness of the Lord,
rejoicing in God's goodness
my spirit is restored.
To me has God shown favor,
to one the world thought frail,
and every age shall echo
the angel's first "All hail!"
2 God's mercy shields the faithful
and saves them from defeat,
with strength that turns to scatter
the proud in their conceit.
The mighty have been vanquished,
the lowly lifted up.
The hungry find abundance,
the rich, an empty cup.
3 To Abraham's descendants,
the Lord will steadfast prove,
for God has made with Israel
a covenant of love.
Rejoicing in God's goodness
my spirit is restored,
my soul proclaims with wonder
the greatness of the Lord. Topics: God the Son Advent; Christian Year-Advent Scripture: Luke 1:46-55 Languages: English

to ransom those in bondage,
to dare not count the cost;

to heed the prisoner's groan,
to take up others' burdens
and bear them as your own.

hold fast to Christ your Head;
become Christ's open letter,
by others to be read;
bear witness as Christ's temple,
Himself the cornerstone,
and be Christ's living altar
whereon His love is shown.

Author: George Duffield, Jr. Hymnal: CGH2010 #639 (2010) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Tune Title: WEBB Lyrics: 1 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
ye soldiers of the cross;
lift high His royal banner,
it must not suffer loss.
From victory unto victory,
His army shall he lead,
till every foe is vanquished,
and Christ is Lord indeed.
2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
the trumpet call obey;
forth to the mighty conflict,
in this His glorious day.
Ye who are brave now serve Him
against unnumbered foes;
let courage rise with danger,
and strength to strength oppose.
3 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
stand in His strength alone;
the arm of flesh will fail you,
ye dare not trust your own.
Put on the gospel armor,
each piece put on with prayer;
where duty calls or danger,
be never wanting there.
4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
the strife will not be long;
this day the noise of battle,
the next the victor's song.
To those who vanquish evil
a crown of life shall be;
they with the King of Glory
shall reign eternally. Topics: The Church on Mission Perserverance; Courage; Jesus Christ-Reign; Perseverance Scripture: Ephesians 6:10-17 Languages: English
