Words

  1. 1All praise to Jesus' hallowed Name Who of virgin pure became True man for us! The angels sing As the glad news to earth they bring. Hallelujah!
  2. 2Th'Eternal Father's only Son For a manger leaves His throne Disguised in our poor flesh and blood See now the everlasting Good.
  3. 3He whom the world could not inwrap Yonder lies in Mary's lap; He is become an infant small, Who by His might upholdeth all.
  4. 4Th'Eternal Light, come down from heav'n, Hath to us new sunshine giv'n; It shineth in the midst of night, And maketh us the sons of light.
  5. 5The Father's Son, God everblest, In the world became a guest; He leads us from this vale of tears, And makes us in his kingdom heirs.
  6. 6He came to earth so mean and poor, Man to pity and restore, And make us rich in heaven above, Equal with angels through his love.
  7. 7All this He did to show His grace To our poor and sinful race; For this let Christendom adore And praise His name for evermore.
