New Testament: Revelation 10 & 11Encouraging Story: 15 years of random acts of kindness and faithHymn for the Day: COME HITHER, YE FAITHFUL 
Probably 17th or 18th Century French or German origin (Adeste fideles laeti triumphantes); translated from Latin to English by Edward Caswall in Schaff’s Christ in Song, 1870.
Come hither, ye faithful, Triumphantly sing! Come, see in the manger, The angels’ dread King! 
Refrain 
To Bethlehem hasten With joyful accord! O come ye, come hither, O come ye, come hither, O come ye, come hither To worship the Lord. 
True Son of the Father, He comes from the skies; To be born of a virgin He doth not despise. 
Refrain 
Hark! hark! to the angels! All singing in Heav’n, To God in the highest All glory be given! 
Refrain 
To Thee, then, O Jesu, This day of Thy birth, Be glory and honor Through heaven and earth True Godhead incarnate! Omnipotent Word! O come let us hasten, O come let us hasten, O come let us hasten, To worship the Lord!
