Born for us on earth below,
See the tender Lamb appears,
Promised from eternal years.
Refrain:
Hail, thou ever blessed morn!
Hail, redemption's happy dawn!
Sing through all Jerusalem,
Christ is born in Bethlehem.
2 Lo, within a manger lies
He who built the starry skies:
He who, throned in height sublime,
Sits amid the cherubim. [Refrain]
3 Say, ye holy shepherds, say,
What's your joyful news today?
Wherefore have ye left your sheep
On the lonely mountain steep? [Refrain]
4 "As we watched at dead of night,
Lo! we saw a wondrous light;
Angels singing, 'Peace on earth,'
Told us of the Saviour's birth." [Refrain]
5 Sacred Infant, all divine,
What a tender love was thine,
Thus to come from highest bliss
Down to such a world as this! [Refrain]
6 Teach, O teach us, holy Child,
By thy face so meek and mild,
Teach us to resemble thee,
In thy sweet humility. [Refrain]
