Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Hymnal: AACH2009 #1 (2009) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: The Lands that long in Darkness lay Lyrics: 1 The Lands that long in Darkness lay
Now have beheld a heav'nly light;
Nations that sat in Death's cold shade,
Are bless'd with beams divinely bright.
2 The Virgin's promised Son is born,
Behold th'expected Child appears;
What shall his names or titles be?
The Wonderful, the Counsellor.
3 The Infant is the Mighty God
Come to be suckled and ador'd;
Th'eternal Father, Prince of Peace,
The son of David, and his Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: ANGELS HYMN
