Laudis Corona ‎#15

15. See! amid the winter's snow

1 See! amid the winter's snow,
Born for us on earth below;
See! the tender Lamb appears,
Promised from eternal years.

Chorus:
Hail! thou ever blessed morn!
Hail! Redemption's happy dawn!
Sing through all Jerusalem,
Christ is born in Bethlehem.

2 Lo! within a manger lies,
He who built the starry skies;
He, who throned in height sublime,
Sits amid the cherubim. [Chorus]

3 "Say ye holy shepherds say,
What your joyful news today?
Wherefore have ye left your sheep,
On the lonely mountain steep?" [Chorus]

4 "As we watched at dead of night,
Lo! we saw a wond'rous light;
Angels singing, 'Peace on earth,'
Told us of the Saviours birth." [Chorus]
