Organ Prelude<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Snow Lay On the Ground\u201d arr. David Gehrenbeck<\/p>\n

David Gehrenbeck (b. 1931) was Professor of Organ at Illinois Wesleyan University from 1971 to 1996. This carol prelude, which he wrote while a graduate student at Union Theological Seminary, depicts the falling snow in the manuals with the melody played by the pedals.<\/p>\n

O<\/strong>rgan Postlude<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cExpressions: No. 5\u201d Jean Langlais<\/span><\/p>\n

Langlais (1907-1991), a blind composer and professor who was titular organist at the Basilica of Sainte Clotilde in Paris from 1945 until 1987. Many of his compositions are based on either Gregorian chant or French folk tunes. In this case, he uses an old French No\u00ebl set also by Claude Balbastre and Louis-Claude Daquin in the 18th century.<\/p>\n

Offertory Anthem<\/strong><\/p>\n

“People Look East”<\/a> arr. Barry Ferguson<\/p>\n

“People look East. The time is near
\nOf the crowning of the year.
\nMake your house fair as you are able,
\nTrim the hearth and set the table.
\nPeople look East, and sing today:
\nLove the Guest is on the way.<\/p>\n

Furrows, be glad. Though earth is bare,
\nOne more seed is planted there:
\nGive up your strength the seed to nourish,
\nThat in course the flow\u2019r may flourish.
\nPeople look East, and sing today:
\nLove the Rose is on the way.<\/p>\n

Stars, keep the watch. When night is dim
\nOne more light the bowl shall brim,
\nShining beyond the frosty weather,
\nBright as sun and moon together.
\nPeople look East, and sing today:
\nLove the Star is on the way.<\/p>\n

Angels, announce to man and beast
\nHim who cometh from the East.
\nSet every peak and valley humming
\nWith the Word, the Lord is coming.
\nPeople look East and sing today:
\nLove the Lord is on the way.<\/p>\n

Ferguson (b. 1942), an English organist, composer, and lecturer who studied composition with Herbert Howells. This lively French tune heralds the coming of Christ and bids us prepare to welcome Him.<\/p>\n

Communion Anthem<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cLo How a Rose\u201d<\/a> Hugo Distler<\/p>\n

Lo how a rose e\u2019er blooming, from tender stem hath sprung,
\nOf Jesse\u2019s lineage coming, as men of old have sung,
\nIt came a flow\u2019ret bright, amid the cold of winter,
\nWhen half spent was the night.<\/span><\/p>\n

Isaiah \u2018twas foretold it, the rose I have in mind,
\nWith Mary we behold it, the Virgin Mother kind,
\nTo show God\u2019s love aright, She bore to men a Saviour,
\nWhen half spent was the night.<\/p>\n

Distler (1908-1942) was a German organist, composer, and educator of the early 20th century. The composer uses a simple harmonic structure to support the gentle soprano melody.<\/p>\n

Hymns\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

On Jordan\u2019s Bank<\/em><\/strong><\/a> (WINCHESTER NEW) is a translation of a Latin hymn by Charles Coffin (1676\u20141749 Paris), who was a French teacher, writer, Jansenist, and Rector of the University of Paris. The translator, John Chandler (1806\u20141876) was an Anglican clergyman who translated hymns of the early church and hymns from the Paris Breviary<\/em>\u00a0of 1736, in which this hymn appeared. The text sums up the message of John the Baptist, encapsulating each of the important themes of the Forerunner of Christ: announcement of grace, expectancy for the coming Messiah, and renewal in preparation for the coming of the King. The first stanza calls God\u2019s people to give attention to the coming Christ. The second calls people to receive God\u2019s presence and God\u2019s cleansing from sin. The third is a profession of faith in Christ. The fourth is a prayer for God\u2019s continued grace in our lives and in our world\u2014a response to God\u2019s redeeming Word. The fifth is a doxology of praise.<\/p>\n

Prepare the way, O Zion<\/strong>\u00a0(Modern lyrics<\/a>) <\/em>(BEREDENS V\u00c4G F\u04e6R HERRAN) i<\/em>s by the Swedish bishop Frans Michael Franz\u00e9n (1772-1847). It was translated by Augustus Nelson (1863\u20131949). This joyful song celebrates Christ who comes to destroy sin and death, not by violence, but by his birth as a child and his self-giving on the cross.<\/p>\n

O Saviour, Precious Saviour<\/strong><\/em> <\/a>(WATERMOUTH) was written by Francis R. Havegal. WATERMOUTH, also known as ANGEL’S STORY was written by Arthur Henry Mann for the Methodist Sunday School Tune-Book<\/em>, 1881.<\/span><\/p>\n
