The Millennial Star

Awake! Rejoice!

Merry, blessed Christmas! Here is a Christmas hymn written by my husband, Bryan.

King Benjamin[ref]Mosiah 3:-8, 20[/ref]

Awake! Awake!
. . The joyous tidings are revealed
. . The world’s creator come to earth
. . That sinners might be healed.
Then rise!
. . Declare in every tongue the Savior’s birth.

Alma the Younger[ref]Alma 13:1-25[/ref]

Prepare! Prepare!
. . The blessed day is drawing near.
. . The angels’ message shall be heard
. . By every willing ear.
Then turn!
. . Attune your hearts to listen for the Word.

Samuel the Lamanite[ref]Helman 14:2-8[/ref]

Attend! Attend!
. . The heavens swell and dance with light.
. . A star shall rise and men will fall
. . In wonder at the sight.
Then watch!
. . Await the signs, a witness unto all.

Nephi, son of Lehi[ref]1 Nephi 11:14-26[/ref]

Behold! Behold!
. . A virgin bears a baby boy.
. . Celestial love is shed abroad
. . To pierce the soul with joy.
Then look!
. . And see the condescension of our God.

Nephi, grandson of Helaman[ref]3 Nephi 1:12-14; 11:15-17[/ref]

Rejoice! Rejoice!
. . The prophets’ anthems to fulfill,
. . This night the son comes to His own
. . And works the Father’s will.
Then sing!
. . Proclaim hosannas! Worship at His throne!
