<p>O Christ, Redeemer of our race,<br>
Thou Brightness of the Father&#8217;s face,<br>
Of Him, and with Him ever One,<br>
Ere times and seasons had begun.</p>
<p>Thou art that very Light of Light,<br>
Unfailing hope in sin&#8217;s dark night,<br>
Hear Thou the prayers Thy people pray,<br>
The wide world o&#8217;er, this bless&egrave;d day.</p>
<p>Remember, Lord of life and grace,<br>
How once, to save a ruined race,<br>
Thou didst our very flesh assume<br>
In Mary&#8217;s undefil&egrave;d womb.</p>
<p>Today, as year by year its light<br>
Sheds o&#8217;er the world a radiance bright,<br>
One precious truth is echoed on,<br>
&#8220;&#8217;Tis Thou hast saved us, Thou alone.&#8221;</p>
<p>Thou from the Father&#8217;s throne didst come<br>
To call His banished children home;<br>
And Heav&#8217;n, and earth, and sea and shore<br>
His love Who sent Thee here adore.</p>
<p>And gladsome too are we today,<br>
Whose guilt Thy blood has washed away;<br>
Redeemed the new made song we sing;<br>
It is the birthday of our King.</p>
<p>O Lord, the Virgin born, to Thee<br>
Eternal praise and glory be,<br>
Whom with the Father we adore<br>
And Holy Ghost forevermore.</p>
