BIRTH OF CHRIST




Awake, awake, arise,
And hail the glorious morn;
Hark! how the angels sing,
“To you a Saviour's born:”
Now let our hearts in concert move,
And every tongue he tuned to love.


He mortals came to save
From sin's tyrannic power:
Come, with the angels sing,
At this auspicious hour;
Let every heart and tongue combine,
To praise the love, the grace divine.


The prophecies and types,
Are all this day fulfilled;
With eastern sages join,
To praise this wond'rous child;
God's only Son is come to bless
The earth with peace and righteousness.


Glory to God on high,
For our Immanuel's birth!
To mortal men good-will,
