Hymnal: Voices of Praise #351 (1883) Refrain First Line: Hail! Thou ever-blessed morn! Lyrics: 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 to-day;
Wherefore have ye left your sheep
On the lonely mountain steep?
CHO.--Hail! Thou ever-blessed, &c.
4 "As we watched at dead of night,
Lo, we saw a wondrous light;
Angels singing peace on earth,
Told us of the Saviour's Birth. [Chorus]
5 Sacred Infant, all Divine,
What a tender love was Thine;
Thus to come from highest bliss
Down to such a world as this! [Chorus]
6 Teach, O teach us, Holy Child,
By Thy Face so meek and mild,
Teach us to resemble Thee,
In Thy sweet humility! [Chorus]
