<p>The only Son from Heaven,<br>
|
|
Foretold by ancient seers,<br>
|
|
By God, the Father, given,<br>
|
|
In human shape appears;<br>
|
|
No sphere His light confining,<br>
|
|
No star so brightly shining<br>
|
|
As He, our Morning Star.</p>
|
|
<p>O time of God appointed,<br>
|
|
O bright and holy morn!<br>
|
|
He comes, the King anointed,<br>
|
|
The Christ, the Virgin born;<br>
|
|
His home on earth He maketh,<br>
|
|
And man of Heaven partaketh,<br>
|
|
Of life again an heir.
|
|
<p>O Lord, our hearts awaken<br>
|
|
To know and love Thee more,<br>
|
|
In faith to stand unshaken,<br>
|
|
In spirit to adore,<br>
|
|
That we still heavenward hasting,<br>
|
|
Yet here Thy joy foretasting,<br>
|
|
May reap its fullness there.</p>
