Prepare the Way, O Zion!

Author: Franz M. Franzen Hymnal: HOoS1937 #1 (1937) Refrain First Line: O blest is He that came Lyrics: 1 Prepare the way, O Zion! Ye awful deeps, rise high; Sink low, ye tow'ring mountains, The Lord is drawing nigh; The righteous King of glory, Foretold in sacred story. Refrain: O blest is He that came In God the Father’s Name. 2 O Zion, He approacheth, Thy Lord and King for aye! Strew palms where He advanceth, Spread garments in His way. God’s promise faileth never, Hosanna sound forever! [Refrain] 3 Fling wide thy portals, Zion, And hail thy glorious King; His tidings of salvation To every people bring, Who, waiting yet in sadness, Would sing His praise in gladness. [Refrain] 4 He cometh not with warriors, And not with pomp and show, Yet smiteth He with terror Sin, death, and every foe. The Spirit’s sword He wieldeth, Not e’en to death He yieldeth. [Refrain] 5 Give heed, thou sinful people, Thy King and Saviour own; The kingdom He hath founded Is not an earthly one; No power can overthrow it, Nor earthly wisdom know it. [Refrain] 6 The throne which He ascendeth Is fixed in heaven above: His sanctified dominion Is light alone and love. His praise be ever sounding For grace and peace abounding. [Refrain] 7 Jerusalem is fallen, And closed its temple-door; Its sacrifices ended; Its scepter is no more. Christ’s kingdom never ceaseth, Its glory still increaseth. [Refrain] Amen.

Lift Up Your Heads, Ye Mighty Gates!

Author: Georg Wiessel Hymnal: HOoS1937 #2 (1937) Refrain First Line: All praise and glory be to thee Lyrics: 1 Lift up your heads, ye mighty gates! Behold, the King of glory waits; The King of kings is drawing near, The Saviour of the world is here; Life and salvation He doth bring, Wherefore rejoice, and gladly sing: Refrain: All praise and glory be to Thee, Lord Jesus Christ, eternally. 2 The Lord is just, a Helper tried, Mercy is ever at His side; His kingly crown is holiness, His scepter, pity in distress: The end of all our woe He brings; Wherefore the earth is glad and sings: [Refrain] 3 O blest the land, the city blest, Where Christ the Ruler is confest! O happy hearts and happy homes To whom this King in triumph comes! The cloudless Sun of joy He is, Who bringeth pure delight and bliss. [Refrain] 4 Fling wide the portals of your heart; Make it a temple, set apart From earthly use for heaven's employ, Adorned with prayer, and love, and joy: So shall your Sovereign enter in, The new and nobler life begin. [Refrain] 5 Redeemer, come! I open wide My heart to Thee; here, Lord, abide! Let me Thine inner presence know, Thy grace and love on me bestow. Thy Holy Spirit guide us on, Until our glorious goal be won. [Refrain] Amen.

Comfort, Comfort Ye My People

Author: Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878; Johannes Olearius Hymnal: HOoS1937 #3 (1937) Lyrics: 1 Comfort, comfort ye my people, Speak ye peace, thus saith our God; Comfort those who sit in darkness, Mourning 'neath their sorrows' load; Speak ye to Jerusalem Of the peace that waits for them; Tell her that her sins I cover, And her warfare now is over. 2 For the herald's voice is crying In the desert far and near, Bidding all men to repentance, Since the kingdom now is here. O that warning cry obey! Now prepare for God a way! Let the valleys rise to meet Him, And the hills bow down to greet Him. 3 Make ye straight what long was crooked, Make the rougher places plain: Let your hearts be true and humble, As befits His holy reign, For the glory of the Lord Now o'er earth is shed abroad, And all flesh shall see the token That His Word is never broken. Amen.

O How Shall I Receive Thee?

Author: Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: HOoS1937 #4 (1937) First Line: O how shall I receive Thee Lyrics: 1 O how shall I receive Thee, How greet Thee, Lord, aright? All nations long to see Thee, My Hope, my heart's Delight! O kindle, Lord most holy, Thy lamp within my breast, To do in spirit lowly All that may please Thee best. 2 Thy Zion palms is strewing, And branches fresh and fair; My heart, its powers renewing, An anthem shall prepare. My soul puts off her sadness Thy glories to proclaim; With all her strength and gladness She fain would serve Thy Name. 3 I lay in fetters groaning, Thou com'st to set me free; I stood, my shame bemoaning, Thou com'st to honor me. A glory Thou dost give me, A treasure safe on high, That will not fail nor leave me As earthly riches fly. 4 Love caused Thine incarnation, Love brought Thee down to me; Thy thirst for my salvation Procured my liberty. O love beyond all telling, That led Thee to embrace, In love all love excelling, Our lost and fallen race! 5 Rejoice then, ye sad-hearted, Who sit in deepest gloom, Who mourn o'er joys departed, And tremble at your doom; He who alone can cheer you, Is standing at the door; He brings His pity near you, And bids you weep no more. Amen.

Lo! He Comes, with Clouds Descending

Author: John Cennick Hymnal: HOoS1937 #8 (1937) Lyrics: 1 Lo, He comes, with clouds descending, Once for favored sinners slain. Thousand thousand saints attending, Swell the triumph of His train. Alleluia! God appears on earth to reign. 2 Ev'ry eye shall now behold Him, Robed in dreadful majesty; Those who set at naught, and sold Him, Pierced, and nailed Him to the tree, Deeply wailing, Shall the true Messiah see. 3 Now redemption, long expected, See in solemn pomp appear, All His saints, by man rejected, Now shall meet Him in the air; Alleluia! See the Day of God appear. 4 Yea, Amen! let all adore Thee, High on Thine eternal throne! Saviour, take the power and glory, Claim the Kingdom for Thine own; O come quickly, Alleluia! come, Lord come! Amen.

Jesus, Thy Church with Longing Eyes

Author: William H. Bathurst Hymnal: HOoS1937 #9 (1937) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy Church with longing eyes For Thine expected coming waits: When will the promised Light arise, And glory beam from Zion's gates? 2 E'en now, when tempests round us fall, And wintry clouds o'ercast the sky, Thy words with pleasure we recall, And deem that our redemption's nigh. 3 Come, gracious Lord, our hearts renew, Our foes repel, our wrongs redress, Man's rooted enmity subdue, And crown Thy gospel with success. 4 O come, and reign o'er every land; Let Satan from his throne be hurled; Let nations bow to Thy command, Let grace revive a dying world. 5 Teach us in watchfulness and prayer To wait for the appointed hour; And fit us by Thy grace to share The triumph of Thy conquering power. Amen.

Once He Came in Blessing

Author: Johann Horn Hymnal: HOoS1937 #10 (1937) Lyrics: 1 Once He came in blessing, All our ills redressing, Came in likeness lowly, Son of God most holy; Bore the cross to save us, Hope and freedom gave us. 2 Still He comes within us, Still His voice would win us From the sins that hurt us; Would to truth convert us From our foolish errors, Ere He comes in terrors. 3 Thus if Thou hast known Him, Not ashamed to own Him, Nor dost love Him coldly, But will trust Him boldly, He will now receive thee, Heal thee, and forgive thee. 4 He who well endureth, Bright reward secureth; Come, then, O Lord Jesus, From our sins release us; Let us here confess Thee, Till in heaven we bless Thee. Amen.
