|
<p>Long ago a shining throng,<br>
|
|
Thrilled the midnight air with song;<br>
|
|
For the Savior promised long,<br>
|
|
Lay in Bethl’em’s stall.<br>
|
|
Over Judah’s silent plain,<br>
|
|
Sweetly rang the joyous strain;<br>
|
|
Of His birth, Who yet shall reign,<br>
|
|
As King of all.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Praise Him, angels bright,<br>
|
|
Praise Him, stars of light,<br>
|
|
Tell His wondrous might,<br>
|
|
Who today was born.<br>
|
|
Shout, O shout His Name,<br>
|
|
Gladly now proclaim,<br>
|
|
How to save He came,<br>
|
|
This happy morn.</p>
|
|
<p>Mighty God and Prince of Peace,<br>
|
|
Never shall His glory cease;<br>
|
|
But forever more increase,<br>
|
|
Till He rules alone.<br>
|
|
All the earth shall own His sway,<br>
|
|
Crowns and kingdoms pass away;<br>
|
|
Kings to him shall tribute pay,<br>
|
|
Upon the throne.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Sing, ye heav’nly hosts on high,<br>
|
|
Sons of men, with joy reply,<br>
|
|
Sound His praise through earth and sky,<br>
|
|
In His love rejoice.<br>
|
|
Let the swelling chorus ring,<br>
|
|
Hail Him Lord and crown Him King;<br>
|
|
Of His pow’r forever sing,<br>
|
|
With heart and voice.</p>
