Why, Herod, Unrelenting Foe

Author: Martin Luther; Richard Massie; Caelius Sedulius Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7456 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Why, Herod, unrelenting foe, Doth the Lord’s coming move thee so? He doth no earthly kingdom seek Who brings His kingdom to the meek. 2. Led by the star, the wise men find The Light that lightens all mankind; The threefold presents which they bring Declare Him God, and Man, and King. 3. In Jordan’s sacred waters stood The meek and heavenly Lamb of God, And He who did no sin, thereby Cleansed us from all iniquity! 4. And now a miracle was done: Six water pots stood there of stone; Christ spake the word with power divine, The water reddened into wine. 5. All honor unto Christ be paid, Pure offspring of the holy maid, With Father and with Holy Ghost, Till time in endless time be lost. Languages: English; German Tune Title: ALLMÄCHTIGER GOTT

He doth no earthly kingdom crave, Who unto us heaven's kingdom gave. 2 The star before the wise men goes, This light to them the true Light shows; They, by the three gifts which they bring, Declare this Child: God, Man, and King. 3 He was baptized in Jordan's flood, The holy, heavenly Lamb of God, And He, who did no sin, thereby Cleansed us from all iniquity! 4 And now a miracle is done: Six water pots are there of stone, Christ speaks the Word with power divine, The water changes into wine. 5 All honor, praise to Thee be paid, O Christ, born of the virgin maid, With Father and with Holy Ghost, Till time in endless time be lost.
