Hymnal ‎#25

25. Come hither, ye faithful

1 Come hither, ye faithful,
Triumphantly sing!
Come, see in the manger
The angels' dread 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 doth 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 honour
Through heaven and earth;
True Godhead Incarnate!
Omnipotent Word!
O, come let us hasten
To worship the Lord!
