Representative Text

1 വിശ്വാസികളെ! വാ തുഷ്ടമാനസരായ്
വന്നീടുക വാ, നിങ്ങള്‍ ബേതലഹേമില്‍
വാ, വന്നു വാഴ്ത്തിന്‍ ത്രിവിഷ്ടപരാജന്‍!

ഹാ! വേഗം വന്നു പാടീന്‍
ഹാ!വേഗം വന്നു വാഴ്ത്തീന്‍
ഹാ!വേഗം വന്നു വാഴ്ത്തീന്‍- കര്‍ത്താവേ

2 ദേവാധി ദേവന്‍ ശ്രീയേശു കര്‍ത്താവ്
ഈ ലോകേ വന്നുദിച്ചു കന്യകയില്‍
രാജാധിരാജന്‍ സൃഷ്ടിയല്ല ജാതന്‍-

3 മാലാഖമാരോടു മേളം കൂടി പാടീന്‍
സ്വര്‍ലോക നിവാസികളെ പാടീന്‍
മഹോന്നതത്തില്‍ ദൈവത്തിനു സ്തോത്രം-

4 ഈ ഭൂമില്‍ ജാതന്‍ പ്രഭയേറും രാജന്‍
ഈശോ തമ്പുരാനു സ്തോത്രം പാടീന്‍
പാരിലുള്ളോരെ വന്ദനം കരേറ്റിന്‍-

Frederic Oakeley graduated M.A. at Oxford, and took Orders in the Church of England. He became Prebendary of Lichfield Cathedral, preacher at Whitehall, and incumbent of Margaret Chapel, London.

His publications are numerous, and some of them have considerable value. --Annotations of the Hymnal, Charles Hutchi… Go to person page >

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries. Go to person page >
