Time Out, Christmas Bonus Edition

Hymns:
LSB 360, All My Heart Again Rejoices;
TLH 92 (words on LSB 386), Now Sing We, Now Rejoice;
LSB 363, Silent Night, Holy Night.

Again, too many good Christmas hymns out there, even just in public domain.

If you are following along in the Lutheran Service Book, there is a one-note rhythm change in the second line and a difference in the key, but the text is still usable.

The third hymn starts out with the first verse in German, then all three verses in English.

We are thankful for the feedback from the podcast and are glad you’ve made it part of your routine. Merry Christmas.

Time Out, Advent Bonus Edition

Hymns: 341, Lift Up Your Heads, Ye Mighty Gates;
345, Hark! A Thrilling Voice Is Sounding;
347, Comfort, Comfort Ye My People.

There are just too many good Advent hymns out there for four weeks of Time Out, so we did three more.

Kudos to the LSB (and LW?) committee for cleaning up pietistic language and using promise language: for example, changing “He may shield us” in 345 to “He will shield us.” I have to be honest, some of the TLH lyrics made me cringe.
