Let all together praise our God
upon the lofty throne,
for God unlocks the heavens today
and gives to us a Son.
Christ lays aside his majesty
and seems as nothing worth,
and takes on him a servant's form,
who made the heaven and earth.
Behold the wonderful exchange
our Lord with us doth make!
Lo, he assumes our flesh and blood,
and we of heaven partake.
The glorious gates of paradise
the angel guards no more.
This day again those gates unfold;
with praise our God adore!
