Whispering winds softly sighing,
daylight dying,
Stars thro’ the low-bending
heavens slowly creep;
Fluttering wings of the angels
swift descending,
Beautiful chorals awaking
earth from sleep.
Hail Him! hail Him! Jesus the holy.
Hallelujah, sing unto His Name;
Now and evermore the same,
Hail Him with gladness,
His pow’r proclaim.
Lullabies tenderly swelling,
sweetly telling,
Jesus the promised Messiah,
draweth near;
Hushed into wondering silence,
shepherds listen,
Glory light streaming
around them, bright and clear.
Hail Him! hail Him! Jesus the holy.
Hallelujah, sing unto His Name;
Now and evermore the same,
Hail Him with gladness,
His pow’r proclaim.
Silvery echoes are ringing,
good news bringing,
Blending with songs
of the angels far away,
Breathing their story of gladness
through the stillness,
Hail to the Savior most holy,
born today.
Hail Him! hail Him! Jesus the holy.
Hallelujah, sing unto His Name;
Now and evermore the same,
Hail Him with gladness,
His pow’r proclaim.
