Our spirits by thine Advent here,
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night,
And death's dark shadows put to flight.

4.
O come, O come, Thou Lord of Might,
Who to Thy tribes on Sinai's height,
In ancient times didst give the law,
In cloud, and majesty and awe.

ADVENT

Behold! behold He cometh

Processional
Translated from the Latin
S. Webbe

Moderato

Behold! behold He cometh,
Who doth salvation bring;
Lift up your heads rejoicing,
And welcome Zion's King;
With Hymns of joy we praise the Lord,
Hosanna to th' Incarnate Word!

Hosanna to the Saviour,
Who came on Christmas morn,
And, of a lowly Virgin,
Was in a stable born;
Emmanuel! Dear Jesus, come,
Within Thy children make Thy home!

Yea, come in love and meekness,
Our Saviour now to be;
Come to be formed in us,
And make us like to Thee,
Before the Day of Wrath draw near,
When as our Judge Thou shalt appear.

Soon shalt Thou sit in glory
Upon the great White Throne,
And punish all the wicked,
And recompense Thine own;
When ev'ry word and deed and thought
To righteous judgement shall be brought.

Ye faithful, with gladness,
Banishing all sadness,

While angels hover o'er Him,
And shepherds kneel before Him
O Come, let us adore Him,

The Lord whom the angels are
Worshipping: God the eternal
Light of Light supernal!

Again sounding o'er us,
Let the Angel chorus
The anthem of gladness and
Triumph sing: "Glory be given
To the Lord of Heaven!"

Our voices no blending
With their songs unending,
All-joyful, dear Jesus, Thy
Glory sing, Be our endeavor
Thus to praise Thee ever!

CHRISTMAS

See, amid the winter's snow

Rev. E. Caswall
Traditional Melody

Allegretto
1.
See, amid the winter's snow,
Born to us on earth below;
See the tender lamb appears,
Promised from eternal years.

Chorus
Hail, thou ever blessed morn,
Hail, Redemption's happy dawn!
Sing through all Jerusalem,
Christ is born in Bethlehem.

2.
Lo, within a manger lie
