<div class="lyrics">
<p>When came in flesh the incarnate Word,<br>
The heedless world slept on,<br>
And only simple shepherds heard<br>
That God had sent His Son.</p>
<p>When comes the Savior at the last,<br>
From east to west shall shine<br>
The awful pomp, and earth aghast<br>
Shall tremble at the sign.</p>
<p>Then shall the pure of heart be blest;<br>
As mild He comes to them,<br>
As when upon the virgin&#8217;s breast<br>
He lay at Bethlehem.</p>
<p>As mild to meek eyed love and faith,<br>
Only more strong to save;<br>
Strengthened by having bowed to death,<br>
By having burst the grave.</p>
<p>Lord, who could dare see Thee descend<br>
In state, unless he knew<br>
Thou art the sorrowing sinner&#8217;s Friend,<br>
The gracious and the true?</p>
<p>Dwell in our hearts, O Savior blest;<br>
So shall Thine advent&#8217;s dawn<br>
&#8217;Twixt us and Thee, our bosom Guest,<br>
Be but the veil withdrawn.</p>
