Words

  1. 1Angels from the realms of glory, Wing your flight o'er all the earth; Ye who sang creation's story Now proclaim Messiah's birth. Come and worship, come and worship, Worship Christ, the newborn King.
  2. 2Shepherds, in the field abiding, Watching o'er your flocks by night, God with us is now residing; Yonder shines the infant light:
  3. 3Sages, leave your contemplations, Brighter visions beam afar; Seek the great Desire of nations; Ye have seen His natal star.
  4. 4Saints, before the altar bending, Watching long in hope and fear; Suddenly the Lord, descending, In His temple shall appear.
  5. 5Sinners, wrung with true repentance, Doomed for guilt to endless pains, Justice now revokes the sentence, Mercy calls you; break your chains.
  6. 6Though an Infant now we view Him, He shall fill His Father's throne, Gather all the nations to Him; Every knee shall then bow down:
  7. 7All creation, join in praising God, the Father, Spirit, Son, Evermore your voices raising To th'eternal Three in One.
