A great and mighty wonder

Meter: 7.6 Appears in 115 hymnals Topics: Advent and Christmas Lyrics: 1 A great and mighty wonder Our Christmas Festal brings: On earth, a lowly Infant, Behold the King of kings! 2 The Word is made incarnate, Descending from on high; And cherubim sing anthems To shepherds, from the sky. 3 And we with them triumphant, Repeat the hymn again: "To God on high be glory, And peace on earth to men!" 4 While thus they sing your Monarch, Those bright angelic bands, Rejoice, ye vales and mountains! Ye oceans, clap your hands! 5 Since all He comes to ransom, By all be He adored, The Infant born in Bethlehem, The Saviour and the Lord! 6 And idol forms shall perish, And error shall decay, And Christ shall wield His scepter, Our Lord and God for aye.
