Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book ‎#20

20. Come hither, ye faithful, triumphantly sing

1 COME hither, ye faithful, triumphantly sing;
Come see in the manger our Saviour and King!
To Bethlehem hasten with joyful accord;
O 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:
O 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:
O 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!
O come, let us hasten to worship the Lord!
