Third Sunday of Advent, Year A 2013 Entrance

Come, Thou Redeemer Of The Earth 1. Come, thou Redeemer of the earth, Come, testify thy wondrous birth: All lands admire, all times applaud! Such is the birth that fits our God. 2. Thy cradle here shall glitter bright, And darkness breathe a newer light, Where endless faith shall shine serene, And twilight never intervene. 3. All laud, eternal Son, to thee: Whose advent sets thy people free, Whom with the Father we adore And Holy Ghost forevermore. Amen.

On Jordans Bank The Baptists Cry 1. On Jordans bank the Baptists cry Announces that the Lord is nigh; Come, then, and hearken, for he brings Glad tidings from the King of kings! 2. Mountains and hills shall be brought to ground. The winding paths be straightened. And all mankind shall see his face; Prepare the way of the Lord. [Chorus] 3. Hes the Lamb of God and you must follow him. Who takes the sin of the world,

For he has come to give you life; Prepare the way of the Lord. [Chorus]

Communion

Love Divine, All Loves Excelling 1. Love divine, all loves excelling, Joy of heavn, to earth come down; Fix in us thy humble dwelling; All thy faithful mercies crown! Jesus, Thou art all compassion, Pure, unbounded love Thou art; Visit us with Thy salvation; Enter evry trembling heart. 2. Come, Almighty to deliver, Let us all Thy life receive; Suddenly return and never, Nevermore Thy temples leave. Thee we would be always blessing, Serve Thee as Thy hosts above, Pray and praise Thee without ceasing, Glory in Thy perfect love. 3. Finish, then, Thy new creation; Pure and spotless let us be. Let us see Thy great salvation Perfectly restored in Thee; Changed from glory into glory, Till in heavn we take our place, Till we cast our crowns before Thee, Lost in wonder, love, and praise.
Tune: HYFRYDOL (87 87 D), Roland H Prichard (1811-1887) Text: Samuel Wesley (1766-1788)

whose name was John. He came to speak for the Light. The voice of one in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord. Refrain Prepare the way of the Lord (x4) 2. Mountains and hills shall be brought to ground, The winding paths be straightened And all mankind shall see his face; prepare the way of the Lord. [Refrain] 3. Hes the Lamb of God and you must follow him Who takes the sin of the world, For he has come to give you life. Prepare the way of the Lord. [Refrain]
