Hail! Ever Hail! Auspiciouss Morn

Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Hail! ever hail! auspicious morn Lyrics: 1 Hail! ever hail! auspicious morn, The brightest since our fall: Mortals, exult! the Savior’s born, O crown him Lord of all! 2 Down from celestial climes of day He hastes to tread our ball, Glory illumines all the way, O crown Him Lord of all! 3 Hark! loud hosannahs from the song The melting airs enthrall, A Savior angels waft along, And shout Him Lord of all. 4 Wrapped in their folded vests of light They seek the sordid stall, Gaze with emotions of delight, And own Him Lord of all. 5 Shepherds, to you a herald flies, Obey the early call; Immanuel in a manger lies, Go crown Him Lord of all. 6 He comes, He comes, our world to bless, To ransom every soul From shades of endless wretchedness: O crown Him Lord of all! 7 The scepter, robe and throne prepare, Attend, ye great and small, With acclamations rend the air, And crown Him Lord of all.
