<p>A great and mighty wonder, a full and holy cure:<br>
|
|
The virgin bears the Infant with virgin honor pure!<br>
|
|
Repeat the hymn again: “To God on high be glory<br>
|
|
And peace on earth to men!”</p>
|
|
<p>The Word becomes incarnate and yet remains on high,<br>
|
|
And cherubim sing anthems to shepherds from the sky.<br>
|
|
Repeat the hymn again: “To God on high be glory<br>
|
|
And peace on earth to men!”</p>
|
|
<p>While thus they sing your Monarch, those bright angelic bands,<br>
|
|
Rejoice, ye vales and mountains, ye oceans, clap your hands.<br>
|
|
Repeat the hymn again: “To God on high be glory<br>
|
|
And peace on earth to men!”</p>
|
|
<p>Since all He comes to ransom, by all be He adored,<br>
|
|
The Infant born in Bethl’em, the Savior and the Lord.<br>
|
|
Repeat the hymn again: “To God on high be glory<br>
|
|
And peace on earth to men!”</p>
|
|
<p>And idol forms shall perish, and error shall decay,<br>
|
|
And Christ shall wield His scepter, our Lord and God for aye.<br>
|
|
Repeat the hymn again: “To God on high be glory<br>
|
|
And peace on earth to men!”</p>
