Bright and joyful is the morn,
For us to a Child is born;
From the highest realms of Heaven,
Unto us a Son is given.
On His shoulders He shall bear
Power and majesty, and wear
On His vesture and His thigh,
Names most awful, names most high.
Wonderful in counsel be,
Christ, the incarnate Deity;
Sire of ages, ne’er to cease,
King of kings, and Prince of peace.
Come and worship at His feet;
Yield to Him the homage meet;
From the manger to the throne,
Homage due to God alone.
