|
|
<p>In stature grows the heavenly Child,<br>
|
|
With death before His eyes;<br>
|
|
A Lamb unblemished, meek and mild,<br>
|
|
Prepared for sacrifice.</p>
|
|
<p>The Son of God His glory hides<br>
|
|
With parents mean and poor;<br>
|
|
And He Who made the heaven abides<br>
|
|
In dwelling place obscure.</p>
|
|
<p>Those mighty hands that stay the sky<br>
|
|
No earthly toil refuse;<br>
|
|
And He Who set the stars on high<br>
|
|
An humble trade pursues.</p>
|
|
<p>He before Whom the angels stand,<br>
|
|
At Whose behest they fly,<br>
|
|
Now yields himself to man’s command,<br>
|
|
And lay His glory by.</p>
|
|
<p>Jesu, the virgin’s holy Son,<br>
|
|
We praise Thee and adore,<br>
|
|
Who art with god the Father One,<br>
|
|
And Spirit evermore.</p>
