<p>Jesu, the Father’s only Son,<br>
|
|
Whose death for all redemption won;<br>
|
|
Before the worlds of God most high<br>
|
|
Begotten all ineffably.</p>
|
|
<p>The Father’s light and splendor Thou,<br>
|
|
Their endless hope to Thee that bow;<br>
|
|
Accept the prayers and praise today<br>
|
|
That through the world Thy servants pray.</p>
|
|
<p>Salvation’s Author, call to mind<br>
|
|
How, taking form of humankind,<br>
|
|
Born of a virgin undefiled,<br>
|
|
Thou in man’s flesh becam’st a child.</p>
|
|
<p>Thus testifies the present day,<br>
|
|
Through every year in long array,<br>
|
|
That Thou, salvation’s source alone,<br>
|
|
Proceedest from the Father’s throne.</p>
|
|
<p>Whence sky, and stars, and sea’s abyss,<br>
|
|
And earth, and all that therein is,<br>
|
|
Shall still, with laud and carol meet,<br>
|
|
The Author of Thine advent greet.</p>
|
|
<p>And we who, by Thy precious blood<br>
|
|
From sin redeemed, are marked for God,<br>
|
|
On this the day that saw Thy birth,<br>
|
|
Sing the new song of ransomed earth.</p>
|
|
<p>For that Thine advent glory be,<br>
|
|
O Jesu, virgin born, to Thee;<br>
|
|
With Father, and with Holy Ghost,<br>
|
|
From men and from the heavenly host.</p>
