<p>We sing, Immanuel, Thy praise,<br>
Thou Prince of Life and Fount of grace,<br>
Thou Flower of heaven and Star of morn,<br>
Thou Lord of lords, Thou virgin born.<br>
Hallelujah!
<p>For Thee, since first the world was made,<br>
So many hearts have watched and prayed;<br>
The patriarchs&#8217; and prophets&#8217; throng<br>
For Thee have hoped and waited long.<br>
Hallelujah!</p>
<p>Now art Thou here, Thou ever blest!<br>
In lowly manger dost Thou rest.<br>
Thou, making all things great, art small;<br>
So poor art Thou, yet clothest all.<br>
Hallelujah!</p>
<p>From Thee above all gladness flows,<br>
Yet Thou must bear such bitter woes;<br>
The Gentiles&#8217; Light and Hope Thou art,<br>
Yet findest none to soothe Thine heart.<br>
Hallelujah!</p>
<p>But I, Thy servant, Lord, today<br>
Confess my love and freely say,<br>
I love Thee truly, but I would<br>
That I might love Thee as I should.<br>
Hallelujah!</p>
<p>I have the will, the power is weak;<br>
Yet, Lord, my humble offering take<br>
And graciously the love receive<br>
Which my poor heart to Thee can give.<br>
Hallelujah!</p>
<p>Had I no load of sin to bear,<br>
Thy grace, O Lord, I could not share;<br>
In vain hadst Thou been born for me<br>
If from God&#8217;s wrath I had been free.<br>
Hallelujah!</p>
<p>Thus will I sing Thy praises here<br>
With joyful spirit year by year;<br>
And when we reckon years no more,<br>
May I in heaven Thy Name adore!<br>
Hallelujah!</p>
