Ahem. For some of us more catholic Christians, it isn't even Advent yet (the preparation for the 12 Days of Christmas, which traditionally begin Christmas Day, not the 13th of December or thereabouts).

Behold the Bridegroom cometh

Behold, the Bridegroom draweth nigh

Blest be the King whose coming

Brief life is here our portion

Christ is the world’s true Light

Christ, whose glory fills the skies

Christian children, Advent bids you

Christian, seek not yet repose

Come, thou long-expected Jesus

Come, thou long-expected Jesus

Comfort, comfort ye my people

Creator of the starry height

Day of wrath! O day of mourning!

From glory to glory advancing, we praise thee, O Lord

Gabriel’s message does away

Go, labor on; spend, and be spent

God is working his purpose out as year succeeds to year

Great God, what do I see and hear

Hail to the Lord’s Anointed

Hark the glad sound! the Savior comes

Hark, what a sound, and too divine

Hark, ‘tis the watchman’s cry

Hark! a thrilling voice is sounding

Hark! the voice eternal

Herald, sound the note of judgment

High o’er the lonely hills

High Word of God, who once didst come

Hills of the north, rejoice

Hosanna to the living Lord

How shall I sing that majesty

Jesus came—the heavens adoring

Jesus shall reign where’er the sun

Joy to the world! The Lord is come

Lift up your heads, ye gates of brass

Lo, he comes with clouds descending

Long ago, prophets knew

Lord Christ, when first thou cam’st to men

Lord, her watch thy Church is keeping

Lord, in this thy mercy’s day

Lord of mercy and of might

Lord of the boundless curves of space

Love divine, all loves excelling

O Christ the Lord, O Christ the King

O come, O come Emmanuel

O day of God, draw nigh

O heavenly Word, eternal Light

O heavenly Word of God on high

O Jesus, thou art standing

O Lord our God, arise

O North, with all thy vales of green

O quickly come, dread Judge of all

O very God of very God

O Word, that goest forth on high

O Word, that goest forth on high

On Jordan’s bank the Baptist’s cry

Once he came in blessing

Prepare the way, O Zion

Redeemer of the nations, come

Rejoice, rejoice, believers

Rejoice! the Lord is King

Savior eternal! Health and life of the world

Savior of the nations, come!

Sleepers, wake! A voice astounds us

Sleepers, wake! the watch-cry pealeth

Son of God, eternal Savior

Ten thousand times ten thousand

That day of wrath, that dreadful day

The advent of our God

The advent of our King

The Church of God a kingdom is

The King shall come when morning dawns

The Lord will come and not be slow

The mighty God, the Lord hath spoken

The world is very evil

There’s a voice in the wilderness crying

Thou art coming, O my Savior

Thou, whose almighty word

Thy Kingdom come, O God

Thy Kingdom come! on bended knee

Wake, awake, for night is flying

Wake, O wake! with tidings thrilling

Watchman, tell us of the night

What is the crying at Jordan?

When came in flesh the incarnate Word

Work, for the day is coming

Ye servants of the Lord

Zion’s King shall reign victorious
