Strengthen my willing feet, Hold me in service sweet Nearer, Christ, to thee, Nearer to thee! 3 Nearer, O Comforter, Nearer to thee, Who with my loving Lord Dwellest with me! Grant me thy fellowship! Help me each day to keep Nearer, my Guide, to thee, Nearer to thee! 4 But to be nearer still, Bring me, O God, Not by the visioned steeps Angels have trod.

It Came upon the Midnight Clear

Author: Edmund H. Sears, 1810-76 Hymnal: LW1982 #62 (1982) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Tune Title: CAROL Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold: "Peace on the earth, goodwill to all, From heav'n's all-gracious king." The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels sing. 2 Still through the cloven skies they come With peaceful wings unfurled, And still their heav'nly music floats O'er all the weary world. Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on hov'ring wing, And ever o'er its babel sounds The blessed angels sing. 3 All you, beneath your heavy load, By care and guilt bent low, Who toil along a dreary way With painful steps and slow: Look up, for golden is the hour, Come swiftly on the wing, The Prince was born to bring you peace; Of him the angels sing. 4 For lo, the days have come to pass By prophets seen of old, When down into the circling years Came Christ as was foretold. His word of peace shall to the earth God's ancient promise bring, And all who take this gift will hear The song the angels sing. Topics: Christmas Languages: English

The Savior comes, The Savior promised long; Let ev'ry heart prepare a throne And ev'ry voice a song. 2 He comes the pris'ners to release, In Satan's bondage held. The gates of brass before him burst, The iron fetters yield. 3 He comes the broken heart to bind, The bleeding soul to cure, And with the treasures of his grace To enrich the humble poor. 4 Our glad hosannas, Prince of Peace, Your welcome shall proclaim, And heav'n's eternal arches ring With your beloved name.
