On Jordan's Banks the Baptist's Cry
Author: Charles Coffin, 1676-1749 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #36 (1978) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Advent 2 Lyrics: 1 On Jordan's bank the Baptist's cry
Announces that the Lord is nigh;
Awake and hearken, for he brings
Glad tidings of the King of kings!
2 Then cleansed be ev'ry life from sin;
Make straight the way for God within,
And let us all our hearts prepare
For Christ to come and enter there.
3 We hail Thee as our Savior, Lord,
Our refuge and our great reward;
Without your grace we waste away
Like flow'rs that wither and decay.
4 Stretch forth your hand, our health restore,
And make us rise to fall no more;
Oh, let your face upon us shine
And fill the world with love divine.
5 All praise to you, eternal Son,
Whose advent has our freedom won,
Whom with the Father we adore,
And Holy Spirit, evermore. Languages: English Tune Title: PUER NOBIS
On Jordan's Banks the Baptist's Cry
Hark the glad sound! — the Saviour comes
Author: P. Doddridge (1702-1751) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #193 (1987) Topics: Advent 2 The Word of God in the Old Testament Lyrics: 1 Hark, the glad sound! — the Saviour comes,
the Saviour promised long;
let every heart prepare a throne
and every voice a song.
2 He comes the prisoners 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 wounded soul to cure;
and with the treasures of his grace
to enrich the humbled poor.
4 Our glad hosannas, Prince of peace,
your welcome shall proclaim;
and heaven’s eternal arches ring
with your beloved name. Languages: English Tune Title: BRISTOL

Tell of peace!” So says our God.
Comfort those who sit in darkness
Mourning under sorrow’s load.
To God's people now proclaim
That God's pardon waits for them!
Tell them that their war is over;
God will reign in peace forever!
2 For the herald’s voice is crying
In the desert far and near,
Calling us to true repentance,
Since the Kingdom now is here.
Oh, that warning cry obey!
Now prepare for God a way!
Let the valleys rise to meet him,
And the hills bow to greet him!
3 Straight shall be what long was crooked,
And the rougher places plain!
Let your hearts be true and humble,
As befits his holy reign!
For the glory of the Lord
Now on earth is shed abroad,
And all flesh shall see the token
That God's word is never broken. Languages: English Tune Title: FREU DICH SEHR

Our prayers must now employ,
And we must hymns of welcome sing
In strains of holy joy.
2 The everlasting Son
Incarnate deigns to be;
Himself a servant's form puts on
To set His servants free.
3 O Zion's Daughter, rise
To meet thy lowly King;
Repentant hearts He'll not despise,
Forgiveness He doth bring.
4 As Judge, on clouds of light,
He soon will come again;
Then saints and angels will unite
To praise His heav'nly reign.
5 Before the dawning day
Let sin's dark deeds be gone,
The old man all be put away,
The new man all put on.
6 All glory to the Son,
Who comes to set us free,
With Father, Spirit, ever One,
Through all eternity.
