The Father’s sole begotten Son
Was born, the virgin’s Child, on earth;
His cross for us adoption won,
The life and grace of second birth.
Forth from the height
of Heav’n He came,
In form of man with man abode;
Redeemed His world
from death and shame,
The joys of endless life bestowed.
Redeemer, come with power benign,
Dwell in the souls that look for Thee;
O let Thy light within us shine
That we may Thy salvation see.
Abide with us, O Lord, we pray,
Dispel the gloom of doubt and woe;
Wash every stain of guilt away,
Thy tender healing grace bestow.
Lord, Thou hast come,
and well we know
That Thou wilt likewise come again;
Thy kingdom shield from every foe,
Thy honor and Thy rule maintain.
Eternal glory, Lord, to Thee,
Whom, now revealed,
our hearts adore;
To God the Father glory be,
And Holy Spirit evermore.
