<p>Hail to the Lord Who comes,<br>
Comes to His temple gate;<br>
Not with His angel host,<br>
Not in His kingly state;<br>
No shouts proclaim Him nigh,<br>
No crowds His coming wait.
<p>But, borne upon the throne<br>
Of Mary&#8217;s gentle breast,<br>
Watched by her duteous love,<br>
In her fond arms at rest,<br>
Thus to His Father&#8217;s house<br>
He comes, the heav&#8217;nly Guest.
<p>There Joseph at her side<br>
In reverent wonder stands,<br>
And, filled with holy joy,<br>
Old Simeon in his hands<br>
Takes up the promised Child,<br>
The Glory of all lands.</p>
<p>O Light of all the earth,<br>
Thy children wait for Thee!<br>
Come to Thy temples here,<br>
That we, from sin set free,<br>
Before Thy Father&#8217;s face<br>
May all presented be!</p>
