Author: Johann Rist, 1607-67; John Troutbeck, 1832-99 Hymnal: Worship Supplement 2000 #714 (2007) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Lyrics: Break forth, O beauteous heav'nly light,
And usher in the morning.
You shepherds, shrink not with affright
But hear the angel's tiding.
This child now weak in infancy,
Our confidence and joy shall be,
The pow'r of Satan breaking,
Our peace eternal making.
