Author: Christina Rossetti (1830-1894) Hymnal: The Hymnal #133 (1950) Meter: 6.7.6.7 Lyrics: 1 Love came down at Christmas,
Love all lovely, Love divine;
Love was born at Christmas,
Stars and angels gave the sign.
2 Worship we the Godhead,
Love incarnate, Love divine;
Worship we our Jesus:
But wherewith for sacred sign?
3 Love shall be our token,
Love be yours and love be mine,
Love to God and all men,
Love for plea and gift and sign.
Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ the Lord His Birth; Brotherhood; Christ Birth and Infancy of; Christ Nativity, The; Christmas; Fellowship; God Love and Fatherhood, His; Love and Communion; Nativity, the ; Orisons Tune Title: HERMITAGE
