Text: | Blessed morn |
Author: | Bishop Christopher Wordsworth |
1 Sing, O sing, this blessed morn;
Unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given,
God Himself comes down from heaven.
Refrain:
Sing, O sing, this blessed morn,
Jesus Christ to-day is born.
2 God of God, and Light of Light,
Comes with mercies infinite,
Joining in a wondrous plan
Heaven to earth, and God to man. [Refrain]
3 God with us, Emmanuel,
Deigns for ever now to dwell;
And on Adam's fallen race
Sheds the fulness of His grace. [Refrain]
4 God comes down that man may rise,
Lifted by Him to the skies;
He is Son of Man that we
By Him Sons of God may be. [Refrain]
5 O renew us, Lord, we pray,
With thy Spirit day by day,
That we ever one may be
With the Father and with Thee. [Refrain]
Amen.
