233. Come hither, ye faithful, triumphantly sing

1 Come hither, ye faithful, triumphantly sing:
Come see in the manger the angels’ dread King!
To Bethlehem hasten with joyful accord;
Oh, come ye, come hither, to worship the Lord!

2 True Son of the Father, He comes from the skies;
To be born of a virgin He does not despise.
To Bethlehem hasten with joyful accord;
Oh, come ye, come hither, to worship the Lord!

3 Hark! hark to the angels, all singing in heaven,
"To God in the highest all glory be given!"
To Bethlehem hasten with joyful accord;
Oh, come ye, come hither, to worship the Lord!

4 To Thee then, O Jesus, this day of Thy birth,
Be glory and honor through heaven and earth.
True Godhead incarnate, omnipotent Word!
Oh, come, let us hasten to worship the Lord!
