Advent: Day 28
"O Emmanuel, our King and Giver of Law:
come to save us, Lord our God!"
Sieben Magnificat Antipoden: O Immanuel
(Arvo Part)
“Fullness of Grace in man’s human frailtyThis is the wonder of JesusLaying aside His power and gloryHumbly He entered our worldChose the path of meanest worthScandal of a virgin birthBorn in a stable cold and rejectedHere lies the hope of the worldFullness of Grace the love of the FatherShown in the face of JesusStooping to bear the weight of humanityWalking the Calvary roadChrist the holy InnocentTook our sin and punishmentFullness of God despised and rejectedCrushed for the sins of the worldFullness of hope in Christ we had longed forPromise of God in JesusThrough His obedience we are forgivenOpening the floodgates of heavenAll our hopes and dreams we bringGladly as an offeringFullness of life and joy unspeakableGod’s gift in love to the world”
