All you children of peace
And all you lovers of freedom,
All you seekers of justice
All who wait for messiah to come
Rejoice in the Lord, rejoice (x2)
For He is coming to rule the earth,
Rejoice in the Lord, rejoice
All who trust in His love
All who wait for His righteousness,
All who've tasted His mercy
All who hope in His faithfulness.

Awake from your slumber! Arise from your sleep!
A new day is dawning for all those who weep.
The people in darkness have seen a great light.
The Lord of our longing has conquered the night.
Let us build the city of God.
May our tears be turned into dancing!
For the Lord, our light and our Love,
has turned the night into day!
We are sons of the morning; we are daughters of day.
The One who has loved us has brightened our way.
The Lord of all kindness has called us to be
A light for his people to set their hearts free.
God is light; in him there is no darkness.
Let us walk in his light, his children one and all.
O comfort my people make gentle your words,
proclaim to my city the day of her birth.
O city of gladness, now lift up your voice!
Proclaim the good tidings that all may rejoice!
Bestir Thy power and come, Lord,
To save our sin-laden race,
Reveal Thy bounty and goodness,
Diffuse Thy splendour and grace.
Life your eyes to the hill
Seek the Saviour until he appears
It is God who comes to our aid
God incarnate our ransom has paid.
From the Lord comes release,
He makes evil to cease all around,
Night and day He guards us from harm;
We depend on the strength of His arm.
Come Redeemer and Lord,
Spread Thy peace and concord on the earth.
For Thy second coming we yearn;
From our bondage of sin we will turn.
To our God let us raise
Our glad voices in praise and esteem,
Render thanks and bless Him in song
To Him glory and honour belong.
Celebrate God with your hands,
Celebrate God with your voice,
Celebrate God in all that you do,
And he will be with you.
Listen to Him with your eyes:
Listen to Him with your heart.
Listen to Him as He speaks with you.
And He will be with you.
Touch Him in all those you love
Touch Him in all those you love
Touch Him in them and let them
touch you.
And He will be with you.
Celebrate God with us
Celebrate God with us
Emmanuel, Emmanuel
Celebrate God with us.
Come and save us, O lord, with power and might.
Maranatha, Come, o Lord!
I will sing to my God never ceasing
All my life I will tell of his wonders
He’s the maker of all earth and heaven
Of the oceans, the seas and all they hold Chorus
The Almighty is faithful forever
He is just to the poor and the outraged
It is he who gives bread to the hungry
Who delivers the captives from their chains. Chorus
He gives sight to the blind in his mercy
And he raises the lowly, the humble
It is he who gives shelter to strangers
Every orphan and widow he defends. Chorus
To the just he is gracious and loving.
But the wicked he foils and they stumble.
Yes, the Lord reigns forever and ever,
He is king over Sion without end.

Come, Lord Jesus, make no delay,
Come, Lord Jesus, light up our way!
The day of the Lord shall come as prophets foretold
When Christ shall make all things new no matter how old,
And some at the stars may gaze and some at God's word
In vain to predict the time, the Day of the Lord.
The Day of the Lord shall come, a thief in the night
A curse to those in the wrong who think they are right,
A pleasure for those in pain with death at the door,
A true liberation for the prisoners and poor.
The desert shall spring to life, the hills shall rejoice,
The lame of the earth shall leap, the dumb find their voice,
The lamb with the lion shall lie, the last shall be first,
And nations for war no more shall study or thirst.
The Day of the Lord shall come but now is the time,
To topple earth's wisdom with Christ's folly sublime,
By loving the loveless, turning the tide and the cheek,
By walking beneath the cross in step with the weak.
Come, O Lord, and set us free.
Bring your people peace
Come, O Lord, and set us free,
Come, Lord Jesus, come!
On that great day a shoot shall sprout
From the stump of Jesse's tree.
From ancient root new blossom rise
For his people to see!
The Spirit of God shall rest on him,
Make him wise to know his word,
A spirit of counsel and of strength
And the fear of the Lord.
Then shall the wolf and the lamb be friends,
The kid and leopard play
Peacefully calf and lion browse
With each other that day!
From near and far they'll seek him out,
His dwelling shall be filled
In all the earth no harm or pain
When they know of His will.
Comfort, comfort my people, says the Lord your God.
Cry out loud to Jerusalem: God has pardoned you.
Every valley shall be filled, Every mount and hill made low.
In the desert, make a path For the Lord, Emmanuel.
For the glory of the Lord Soon shall be revealed to me.
Day of the Lord, day when we raise our hearts in praise
And thanks to the Lord,
Peace in our hearts this day of rest!
May God be praised from hour to hour,
Holy his name and mighty his power,
Alleluia, alleluia.
Day of the Lord, day we assemble in his house
To pray to the Lord,
Promise He gives of His return.
Alleluia, this is the day the Lord has made,
Be glad and rejoice.
Praised be his name, for he is good.
Every valley shall be exalted
And every hill made low.
And all God's people shall see together
The glory of the Lord.
A voice cries out in the wilderness:
"Prepare the way of the Lord.
Make straight in the desert a highway,
A highway for our God".
Comfort all my people;
The time for war is gone.
The blind shall see, the deaf shall hear;
The lame shall leap for joy.
Stand upon the mountain top;
Lift up your voice to the world.
Sing joyfully, Jerusalem,
Behold, behold your God!
God of hosts, bring us back bring us back
Let your face shine on us and we shall be saved.
O shepherd of Israel, hear us,
Shine forth from your cherubim throne.
O Lord, rouse up in your might,
O Lord, come to our help.
Chorus
God of hosts, turn again, we implore,
Look down from heaven and see.
Visit this vine and protect it,
The vine your right hand has planted.
Chorus
May your hand be on the man you have chosen,
The man you have given your strength.
And we shall never forsake you again:
Give us life that we may call upon your name.
Chorus
In His days peace and justice shall prevail (x2)
0 God give your judgement to the king,
To a king's Son your justice,
That he may judge your people in justice
And your poor in right judgement.
In his days justice shall flourish
And peace till the moon fails,
He shall rule from sea to sea,
From the great river to earth's bounds.
He shall save the poor when they cry
And the needy who are helpless.
He will have pity on the weak,
And save the lives of the oppressed.
He is Lord, he is King, let him in (x2)
The Lord's is the earth and its fullness.
The world and all its peoples.
It is he who set it on the seas;
On the waters he made it firm.
Who shall climb the mountain of the Lord?
Who shall stand in his holy place?
The one with clean hands and pure heart,
Who desires not worthless things.
They shall receive blessings from the Lord
And reward from the God who saves them.
Such are those who seek him,
Seek the face of the God of Jacob.
Jesus Christ, living in us,
You are our gladness for ever.

You will return, for ever bringing us joy, alleluia
Praise be to you, O Christ, alleluia
Praise to the Father, Son and Spirit divine, alleluia
Jesus come, Jesus come Jesus come
Say to us: I’m the one who is to come.
He will come just when you feel He’ll never come.
He will come just when you think He’s gone.
He’ll be there just when you find He’s elsewhere.
Please don’t be late, be awake, let Him come.
Jesus is coming, Jesus is coming,
Jesus is coming again,
Rise from your slumber, welcome the Day-star,
Open your hearts to the King!
You in darkness, greet the Light,
Shining through the dreary night.
Unto us is coming soon
Jesus, our Emmanuel.
By these names shall He be called:
Everlasting Father,
Counsellor most wonderful,
Mighty God and Prince of peace.
And the government shall be firm
Upon his shoulder.
He shall rule with righteousness.
Truth and justice shall prevail.
Joy to you, I say, rejoice,
For the Lord is very near.
In the desert make a way
And his glory shall appear.
Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
And with fear and trembling stand;
Ponder nothing earthly-minded,
For with blessing in His hand,
Christ our God to earth descendeth,
Our full homage to demand.
King of kings, yet born of Mary,
As of old on earth He stood,
Lord of lords, in human vesture,
In the body and the blood;
He will give to all the faithful
His own self for heav’nly food.
Rank on rank the host of heaven
Spreads its vanguard on the way,
As the Light of light descendeth
From the realms of endless day,
That the pow’rs of hell may vanish
As the darkness clears away.
At His feet the six-winged seraph,
Cherubim with sleepless eye,
Veil their faces to the presence,
As with ceaseless voice they cry:
“Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia, Lord Most High!â€
Like a sea without a shore, Love divine is boundless.
Time is now and evermore, And His love surrounds us.
Maranatha, Maranatha
Maranatha, come Lord Jesus come!
O come, O come, Emmanuel,
and ransom captive Israel
that mourns in lonely exile here
until the Son of God appear.
Chorus:
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
shall come to you, O Israel.
O come, O Wisdom from on high,
who ordered all things mightily;
to us the path of knowledge show
and teach us in its ways to go.
Chorus
O come, O come, great Lord of might,
who to your tribes on Sinai's height
in ancient times did give the law
in cloud and majesty and awe.
Chorus
O come, O Bright and Morning Star,
and bring us comfort from afar!
Dispel the shadows of the night
and turn our darkness into light.
Chorus
O come, O King of nations, bind
in one the hearts of all mankind.
Bid all our sad divisions cease
and be yourself our King of Peace.
Chorus
Prepare ye the way of the Lord,
Make his path straight, open the gate,
That he may enter freely into our life,
Hosanna we cry to his name!
For in his reign the poor will prosper,
He will judge in righteousness.
And he will crush, put down oppressors,
Give deliverance to the weak.
He falls like dew upon the flowers,
Like the rains that quench the earth
And in his days, justice shall flourish.
He will be the prince of peace.
May Jesus rule over land and ocean,
May his foes before Him bow.
Long may He live, His name enduring.
May all people bless His name!
Rorate
caeli desuper,
Et nubes pluant justum.
Ne irascaris Domine,
Ne ultra memineris iniquitatis:
Ecce civitas Sancti facta est deserta:
Sion deserta facta est:
Jerusalem desolata est:
Domus sanctificationis tuae
Et gloriae tuae,
Ubi laudaverunt te patres nostri.
Show your goodness, Lord and redeem us
May your glory shine on the earth.
Lord you poured your blessings on your people
And restored to us prosperity.
You forgave the guilt of your people,
In your goodness covered all their sins;
You averted the fury of your anger
And calmed the heat of your rage.
Now revive us God you are our helper.
Will you not restore again our life?
Put aside your grievances against us
That your people may rejoice in you.
Let us see your tenderness and mercy,
Grant to us, 0 Lord, your saving help.
Stay awake, the Master is coming.
Be not asleep for all may be lost,
Stand ready, the Son of Man is coming
At a time we may least expect!
Prepare the way and clear the bye lanes
For our Lord and Master yet to come,
With open minds and grateful hearts
Let’s now repent our sinful past.
The Master’s work proclaims his glory,
He has given sight to the blind,
The deafened ears have been unsealed,
The lame have leapt and sung for joy.
“Forgive,†he says, “all those who hurt you,
Love instead as god’s good children should,
Don’t be their judge lest you be judged,
As God alone can judge us all.â€
Let’s love them all who are around us,
Most of all the poorest of the poor,
By this we’ll bring a ray of hope
And joy into their saddened hearts.
