Hark! the full-voiced choir is singing,
As the midnight darkness flies;
Heavenly angels now are bringing
Peaceful tidings from the skies.
Hail, O Jesus! Hail, O Jesus!
Sun of Righteousness, arise!
Sun of Righteousness, arise!
Yes, behold the day of glory,
Dawn at length for all the earth;
List, the cherubs tell the story—
“This the day of Jesus’ birth.”
Hail, O Jesus! Hail, O Jesus!
Sun of Righteousness, arise!
Sun of Righteousness, arise!
Lo, He comes! His throne the manger,
Shepherds, seek His shrine the stall;
Ox and ass behold the Stranger,
God, who made and governs all!
Hail, O Jesus! Hail, O Jesus!
Sun of Righteousness, arise!
Sun of Righteousness, arise!
Mortals, raise your loudest voices,
Jesus lifts on high your horn;
Earth redeemed today rejoices,
For today her Lord is born!
Hail, O Jesus! Hail, O Jesus!
Sun of Righteousness, arise!
Sun of Righteousness, arise!
