Advent Hymns

 Advent hymns are beautiful! Here are some of my favorites and some beautiful truths we can learn from them:

1. Joy to the World

    The Lord's birth brings us joy! And that joy is a joy that is unshakable and completely satisfying! 

2. Silent Night

    Jesus was the only infant ever to be born as holy! He is the Savior who was born!

3. O Holy Night

    Before Christ we had no hope. Now we have hope, worth, identity, and peace in Jesus Christ! 

4. Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

    Christ is the the incarnate Deity! He is God in flesh (Jn 1:14). 

5. O Come All ye Faithful

    Let us come and adore the One who is our Everlasting Light and Prince of Peace!

6. Angels We Have Heard on High

    The angels sang glory to God on the night Christ was born! They knew that this was a reason to be joyful!

7. O Come, O Come Emmanuel

    Jesus is Emmanuel, God with us. He was fully God and fully man. And He fulfilled every prophecy told about the coming Messiah!

8. What Child is This

    Christ the King is born! He is deserving of our worship!

9. Go Tell It on the Mountain

    We should proclaim our hope and joy in Christ! Christ humbled Himself for us!

10. O Little Town of Bethlehem

      Jesus humbled Himself by being born in a manger, being born to a virgin, being born in Bethlehem (not the big city of Jerusalem, but the small town of Bethlehem), and by living a perfect life and then dying for us! 

 

"Joy to the World the LORD has come!"
