Though Famed in Israel's Royal History

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Hymnal: Worship (4th ed.) #396 (2011) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8.8 Topics: Advent IV A First Line: Though famed in Israel's royal hist'ry Lyrics: 1 Though famed in Israel's royal hist'ry, Bethlehem would that past excel When God revealed a greater myst'ry, The Word made flesh, Emmanuel: Through Mary born from David's line, A Savior human and divine. 2 Who would expect a humble manger To cradle such a holy birth! How could flesh clothe the stars' arranger Or sheathe the hands that formed the earth? God's ways confound the worldly-wise, Disarm the sure with bright surprise. 3 All we recall of gain or glory Can scarce predict what still may be; God is the Author of our story, Whose will is sov'reign, boundless, free: Yet living in this time and place We can be vessels of God's grace. 4 Kindle, O God, your gifts within us, Stir up our faith, renew our nerve. When tempting powers seek to win us, Help us remember whom we serve: Transform our lies and build in them A new and willing Bethlehem. Languages: English Tune Title: WER NUR DEN LIEBEN GOTT
