Come sing the sweet song of the ages—
The song of Immanuel sing!
There comes through the portals eternal
An anthem of praise to the King!
Then loud let our carols of gladness
Re-echo the song of the skies;
Once more to the tidings of glory
The earth in its fulness replies.
Foretold by the word of the prophets;
Decreed by the wisdom of God:
We hail the fulfilment of mercy,
We praise our Redeemer and Lord.
Then loud let our carols of gladness
Re-echo the song of the skies;
Once more to the tidings of glory
The earth in its fulness replies.
The centuries sing of His coming;
The nations His wonders proclaim;
And ever increasing in glory,
We sing of His wonderful name.
Then loud let our carols of gladness
Re-echo the song of the skies;
Once more to the tidings of glory
The earth in its fulness replies.
The song that is sweetest and noblest
We sing to the Lord we adore;
And crown Him who comes to redeem us—
Immanuel, King evermore!
Then loud let our carols of gladness
Re-echo the song of the skies;
Once more to the tidings of glory
The earth in its fulness replies.
