And ransom captive Israel In Him alone is our strength That mourns in lonely exile here In Him alone are we justified Until the Son of God appear. In Him alone are we saved
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel What have we to offer
Shall come to you O Israel. That does not fade or wither Can the world ever satisfy O come, our Wisdom from on high The emptiness in our hearts Who ordered all things mightily In vain we deny To us the path of knowledge show, And teach us in her ways to go When will you cease running In search of hollow meaning Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Let His love feed the hunger Shall come to you O Israel. In your soul till it overflows With joy you yearn to know O come the branch of Jesse’s tree Free them from Satan’s tyranny In Him alone is our hope That trust your mighty pow’r to save In Him alone is our strength And give them vict’ry o’er the grave. In Him alone are we justified In Him alone are we saved Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to you O Israel.
Offertory:
CHRISTIFY
Christify the gifts we bring to you
Bounty of the earth, recieve a new. Take the bless the work of our hands
Christify these gifts at your command.
Sun and moon and earth and wind and rain All the world's contained in every grain All the toil and dreams of human kind, All we are, we bring as bread and wine.
Turn the bread and wine, our hearts
implore To the living presence of the Lord, Blessed and broken, shared with all in need All our hungers, sacred bread will feed.
With this bread and wine you christify
Now our deepest thirst you satisfy //: we who by this bread you sanctify Draw the world for you to christify. //
