wing your flight o’er all the earth;
As you sang creation’s story,
now proclaim Messiah’s birth:
Refrain:
Come and worship, come and worship,
worship Christ, give thanks and sing.
2 Shepherds, in the fields abiding,
watching o’er your flocks by night,
God with us is now residing,
yonder shines the infant light: [Refrain]
3 Sages, leave your contemplations,
brighter visions beam afar;
Seek the great Desire of Nations,
guided by Christ's natal star: [Refrain]
4 Saints, before the altar bending,
watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly, our prayers attending,
Christ beside you shall appear. [Refrain] Topics: Christmas; Jesus Christ Birth and Infancy; Processional Hymns; Year A Holy Name; Year A Epiphany; Year B Holy Name; Year B Epiphany; Year C Holy Name; Year C Epiphany Scripture: Luke 2:8-20 Languages: English Tune Title: REGENT SQUARE
