|
<p>Behold, the grace appears!<br>
|
|
The promise is fulfilled;<br>
|
|
Mary, the wondrous virgin, bears,<br>
|
|
And Jesus is the Child.
|
|
<p>The Lord, the highest God,<br>
|
|
Calls Him His only Son;<br>
|
|
He bids Him rule the lands abroad,<br>
|
|
And gives Him David’s throne.</p>
|
|
<p>O’er Jacob shall He reign<br>
|
|
With a peculiar sway;<br>
|
|
The nations shall His grace obtain,<br>
|
|
His kingdom ne’er decay.</p>
|
|
<p>To bring the glorious news<br>
|
|
A heav’nly form appears;<br>
|
|
He tells the shepherds of their joys,<br>
|
|
And banishes their fears.</p>
|
|
<p>“Go, humble swains,” said he,<br>
|
|
“To David’s city fly;<br>
|
|
The promised Infant born today<br>
|
|
Doth in a manger lie.”</p>
|
|
<p>“With looks and hearts serene,<br>
|
|
Go visit Christ your King;<br>
|
|
And straight a flaming troop was seen:<br>
|
|
The shepherds heard them sing:</p>
|
|
<p>“Glory to God on high!<br>
|
|
And heav’nly peace on earth;<br>
|
|
Goodwill to men, to angels joy,<br>
|
|
At the Redeemer’s birth!”</p>
|
|
<p>In worship so divine,<br>
|
|
Let saints employ their tongues;<br>
|
|
With the celestial hosts we join,<br>
|
|
And loud repeat their songs:</p>
|
|
<p>“Glory to God on high!<br>
|
|
And heav’nly peace on earth;<br>
|
|
Goodwill to men, to angels joy,<br>
|
|
At our Redeemer’s birth!”</p>
