<p>The Maker of the sun and moon,<br>
|
|
The Maker of our earth,<br>
|
|
Lo! late in time, a fairer boon,<br>
|
|
Himself is brought to birth!</p>
|
|
<p>How blest was all creation then,<br>
|
|
When God so gave increase;<br>
|
|
And Christ, to heal the hearts of men,<br>
|
|
Brought righteousness and peace!</p>
|
|
<p>No star in all the heights of heaven<br>
|
|
But burned to see Him go;<br>
|
|
Yet unto earth alone was given<br>
|
|
His human form to know.</p>
|
|
<p>His human form, by man denied,<br>
|
|
Took death for human sin:<br>
|
|
His endless love, through faith descried,<br>
|
|
Still lives the world to win.</p>
|
|
<p>O perfect love, outpassing sight,<br>
|
|
O light beyond our ken,<br>
|
|
Come down through all the world tonight,<br>
|
|
And heal the hearts of men!</p>
