<p>The holy Son of God most high,<br>
For love of Adam&#8217;s laps&egrave;d race,<br>
Quit the sweet pleasures of the sky<br>
To bring us to that happy place.</p>
<p>His robes of light He laid aside,<br>
Which did His majesty adorn,<br>
And the frail state of mortals tried,<br>
In human flesh and figure born.</p>
<p>Whole choirs of angels loudly sing<br>
The mystery of His sacred birth,<br>
And the blest news to shepherds bring,<br>
Filling their watchful souls with mirth.</p>
<p>The Son of God thus man became,<br>
That men the sons of God might be,<br>
And by their second birth regain<br>
A likeness to His deity.</p>
