All glory to God,
and peace upon earth,
Be published abroad
at Jesus’ birth;
The forfeited favor
of Heaven we find
Restored in the Savior
and Friend of mankind.
Then let us behold
Messias the Lord,
By prophets foretold,
by angels adored;
Our God’s incarnation
with angels proclaim,
And publish salvation
in Jesus’ Name.
Our newly born King
by faith we have seen
And joyfully sing
His goodness to men,
That all men may wonder
at what we impart,
And thankfully ponder
His love in their heart.
What moved the Most High
so greatly to stoop,
He comes from the sky
our souls to lift up;
That sinners forgiven,
might sinless return
To God and to Heaven;
their Maker is born.
Immanuel’s love
let sinners confess,
Who comes from above,
to bring us His peace;
Let every believer
His mercy adore,
And praise Him forever,
when time is no more.
