  • The Cathedral of All Saints
    BETHESDA EPISCOPAL CHURCH Washington Street near Broadway Saratoga Springs, New York 12866 THE FIRST SUNDAY OF ADVENT 3 DECEMBER 2017 3:00 P.M. About this Service In 1934, sixteen years after he had introduced to King’s College, Cambridge, the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols for Christmas Eve, the Dean, The Very Reverend Eric Milner-White, composed a similar service for Advent Sunday. His concern for more imaginative forms of worship appears in the Preface he wrote to that service. “In the old English liturgies, the Advent Offices made a preparation for the coming of our Lord to this earth far more evident than those of the Prayer Book.” Intended to express “the desire of all nations and ages,” this Advent Carol Service had as its purpose “not to celebrate Christmas, but to expect it.” This service of ancient precedent is a vivid expression of the Church’s preparation for the coming of the Lord Jesus both in the festival of Jesus’ Nativity and in the consummation of the ages. In it we symbolize and express the loving bond that joins all within our fellowship and the peace within the whole Church, as well as the joy and worship of us all at the advent of the Son of Man. _______________________________________________________________ THE PARISH STAFF The Very Reverend Marshall J.

  • Advent Hymns That Speak to the Light
    Advent hymns which speak to the Light, which overcomes the darkness. From Veni, Veni, Emmanuel: O come, thou Dayspring from on high, And cheer us by thy drawing nigh: Disperse the gloomy cloud of night And death’s dark shadow put to flight Rejoice, rejoice Emmanuel, Shall come to thee O Israel. From the German Hymn Wachet auf: Wake, awake, for night is flying; The watchmen on the heights are crying: Awake, Jerusalem, at last! Midnight hears the welcome voices And at the thrilling cry rejoices; Come forth, ye virgins, night is past; The Bridegroom comes, awake; Your lamps with gladness take; Alleluia! And for His marriage feast prepare For ye must go and meet Him there. From Conditor Alme Siderum Creator of the stars of night, Thy people’s everlasting light Oh Christ, thou savior of us all, We pray thee hear us when we call From Vox Clara ecce intonat: Hark! a thrilling voice is sounding; “Christ is nigh,” it seems to say, “Cast away the works of darkness, O ye children of the day.” Wakened by the solemn warning Let the earthbound soul arise; Christ, her Sun, all ill dispelling, Shines upon the morning skies. From the Liturgy of St. James, 4th Century (Σιγησάτο παρα σὰρξ βροτεία): 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 powers of hell may vanish As the darkness clears away. From Veni Redemptor Gentium: Thy cradle here shall glitter bright, And darkness breathe a newer light, Where endless faith shall shine serene, And twilight never intervene .

William Henry Havergal (1793-1870), alt. A Bidding Prayer Beloved in Christ, in this season of Advent, let it be our care and delight to prepare ourselves to hear again the message of the Angels, and in heart and mind to go even unto Bethlehem, to see the Babe lying in a manger. Let us read and mark in Holy Scripture the tale of the loving purposes of God from the first days of our disobedience unto the glorious Redemption brought us by his holy Child; and let us look forward to the yearly remembrance of his birth with hymns and songs of praise. 2 But first, let us pray for the needs of the whole world; for peace and goodwill over all the earth; for the mission and unity of the Church, for which he died, and especially in this country and within this city. And because this of all things would rejoice his heart, let us at this time remember in his name the poor and the helpless; the hungry and the oppressed; the sick and those who mourn; the lonely and the unloved; the aged and the little children; and all those who know not the Lord Jesus, or who love him not, or who by sin have grieved his heart of love.

  • Lessons and Carols
    DVENT Lessons and Carols celebrating the season of expectation in word and song º THE COMMUNITY OF ST. PHILIP AT WORSHIP 11:00 BNt4VOEBZt%FDFNCFS 2 ADVENT LESSONS AND CAROLS INTRODUCTION In the Middle Ages, the Church kept Advent as a season of great solemnity — a time in which to meditate upon the ultimate issues of death, judgment, hell, and heaven. But Advent was also a time of great rejoicing. For Christ would come, not only as Judge, but also as Savior, and would usher in the Kingdom of God. Advent, therefore, provided a vivid preparation for Christmas. Processions from west to east, and the use of lights, spoke of the Church’s hope in the coming of Christ — the Light of the world — to banish sin and darkness. Antiphons were sung, calling upon God to deliver his people, and readings from the Old Testament were seen as pointing to the fulfillment of God’s purposes in Jesus Christ. This service aims to recapture something of that Advent longing and hope. It begins quietly with the Advent Responsory, in which Christ’s coming is announced, “Rise up, O Jerusalem!” The Blessing of Light follows, and the service unfolds. The liturgy is structured around the Advent “O” antiphons, known as the Great “Os.” These were originally sung as antiphons to the Magnificat during Vespers from December 17 to 23, and have provided a rich source of devotional imagery in Advent. The readings and music serve to complement the antiphons, and help us to reflect on the theme of Christ who comes to judge and save his people.

    First Sunday of Advent November 29, 2020 The St. Paul’s family welcomes you as we worship God together. We strive to be full, active, conscious participants in our liturgical life together. The Procession of Light and Hope HYMN 211 “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel” Veni Emmanuel A cantor sings the first phrase, then all join in singing O come, O come, Emmanuel, and ransom captive Israel, That mourns in lonely exile here until the Son of God appear. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel. LIGHTING OF THE ADVENT CANDLE Isaiah 2:4-5 God shall judge between the nations, and shall arbitrate for many peoples; they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. O house of Jacob, come, let us walk in the light of the Lord! The first candle is lit as a symbol of Christ our Hope. May the light sent from God shine in the darkness to show us the way of salvation. HYMN 211 “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel” Veni Emmanuel verses 2 - 4 O come, thou Wisdom from on high, and order all things far and nigh; to us the path of knowledge show, and cause us in her ways to go. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel. O come, O come, great Lord of might, who to thy tribes on Sinai’s height in ancient times once gave the law in cloud and majesty and awe. O come, thou Root of Jesse’s tree, an ensign of thy people be; before thee rulers silent fall; all peoples on thy mercy call.
