Rejoice, Rejoice, Believers CW #7 Verses 1-4 Text: Laurentius Laurenti, Setting: HAF TRONES LAMPA FÄRDIG Tune: Hymnal and Order of Service, Rock Island, 1901

Verse 1: Rejoice, rejoice, believers, And let your light appear, The evening is advancing, And darker night is near. The Bridegroom is arising And soon is drawing nigh. Up, pray and watch and wrestle; At midnight comes the cry.

Verse 2: The watchers, on the mountain Proclaim the Bridegroom near; Go forth, as he approaches, With alleluias clear. The marriage feast is waiting; The gates wide open stand. Arise, O heirs of glory; The Bridegroom is at hand.

Verse 3: You saints, who here in patience Your cross and suff'rings bore, Shall live and reign forever When sorrow is no more. Around the throne of glory The Lamb you shall behold; In triumph lay before him Your shining crowns of gold.

Verse 4 (Please Rise): Arise, Desire of nations; O Jesus, now appear, The Hope and Expectation Of ev'ry Christian here. With hearts and hands uplifted We plead, O Lord, to see The day of earth's redemption That sets your people free.

Opening Verses Pastor: In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. All: Amen. Pastor: Oh, how I love your law! All: I meditate on it all day long.

Opening Verses All: so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. Pastor: Yet so often we have despised God’s Word and failed to gladly hear and learn it. For this and all our sins, we bow before God and humbly ask his forgiveness.

Confession of Sin All: Holy and merciful Father, I confess that I am by nature sinful and that I have disobeyed you in my thoughts, words, and actions. I have done what is evil and failed to do what is good. For this I deserve your punishment both now and in eternity.

Children’s Message

Text: Valentin Thilo, Setting: AUS MEINES HERZENS GRUNDE Tune: New Catechismus Gesangbüchlein, Hamburg, 1598, alt. Arise, O Christian People CW #14 Verses 1-4

Verse 1: Arise, O Christian people! Prepare yourselves today. Prepare to greet the Savior, Who takes your sins away. To us by grace alone The truth and light were given; The promised Lord from heaven To all the world is shown.

Verse 2: Prepare the way before him; Prepare for him the best. Cast out what would offend him, This great, this heav'nly guest Make straight, make plain the way; The lowly valleys raising, The heights of pride abasing, His path all even lay.

Verse 3: The humble heart and lowly God raises up on high; Beneath his feet in terror The haughty soul shall lie. The heart sincere and right, That heeds God's invitation And makes true preparation-- It is the Lord's delight.

Verse 4: Prepare my heart, Lord Jesus; Turn not from me aside, And help me to receive you This blessed Adventtide. From stall and manger low Come now to dwell within me, I'll sing your praises gladly And forth your glory show.

“Advent Is A Time For Waiting!” 1. With patient expectation 2. With persevering endurance

In thankfulness for our salvation, we support God’s work with our offerings.

Text: Charles Wesley, Setting: ST. HILARY Tune: Source unknown Come, O Long-Expected Jesus CW #6 Verses 1-2

Verse 1: Come, O long-expected Jesus, Born to set your people free; From our sins and fears release us By your death on Calvary. Israel's Strength and Consolation, Hope to all the earth impart, Dear Desire of ev'ry nation, Joy of ev'ry longing heart.

Verse 2: Born your people to deliver, Born a child and yet a king, Born to reign in us forever, Now your gracious kingdom bring. By your own eternal Spirit Rule in all our hearts alone; By your all-sufficient merit Raise us to your glorious throne.
