Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #221 (1899) 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,
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,
Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
3 Sages, leave your contemplations:
Brighter visions beam afar;
Seek the great Desire of nations:
Ye have seen His natal star:
Come and worship,
Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
4 Saints, before the altar bending,
Watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
In His temple shall appear:
Come and worship,
Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
Amen.
