Author: James Montgomery (1771-1854) Appears in 767 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Angels, from the realms of Glory,
Wing your flight o’er all the earth:
Ye, who sang creation’s story,
Now proclaim Messiah’s birth.
Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
2 Shepherds in the field abiding,
Watching o’er your flocks by night,
God with man is now residing;
Yonder shines the infant light.
Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
3 Saints before the altar bending,
Watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
In his temple shall appear.
Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
4 Sinners moved by true repentance,
Doomed for guilt to endless pains,
Justice now revokes the sentence,
Mercy calls you, break your chains.
Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
