|
|
<p>The lands that long in darkness lay<br>
|
|
Now have beheld a heav’nly light;<br>
|
|
Nations that sat in death’s cold shade<br>
|
|
Are blessed with beams divinely bright.</p>
|
|
<p>The virgin’s promised Son is born,<br>
|
|
Behold th’expected Child appear:<br>
|
|
What shall His names or titles be?<br>
|
|
“The Wonderful, the Counsellor.”</p>
|
|
<p>This infant is the mighty God,<br>
|
|
Come to be suckled and adored;<br>
|
|
Th’eternal Father, Prince of Peace,<br>
|
|
The Son of David, and his Lord.
|
|
<p>The government of earth and seas<br>
|
|
Upon His shoulders shall be laid;<br>
|
|
His wide dominions still increase,<br>
|
|
And honors to His Name be paid.</p>
|
|
<p>Jesus, the holy Child, shall sit<br>
|
|
High on His father David’s throne;<br>
|
|
Shall crush His foes beneath His feet,<br>
|
|
And reign to ages yet unknown.</p>
