Part I. Christians, be joyful -- Now it came to pass in those days -- See now the bridegroom -- Prepare thyself, Zion -- How shall I fitly meet thee -- And she brought forth her first-born song -- For us to earth he cometh poor -- Who rightly can the love declare -- Might Lord, and king all-glorious -- Ah! dearest Jesus. |
|
Part II. Symphony -- And there were shepheds -- Break forth, o beauteous, heavenly light -- And the angel said to them -- What God to Abraham revealed -- Haste, ye shepherds -- And this is the sign to you -- Within yon gloomy manger -- O haste ye, then -- Slumber, beloved -- And suddenly there was with the angel -- Glory to God in the highest -- 'Tis right that angels thus should sing -- With all thy hosts. |
|
Part III. Hear, king of angels -- And when the angels -- Let us even now go to Bethlehem -- He bids us comfort take -- The Lord hath all these wonders wrought -- Lord, thy mercy -- And they came with haste -- Keep, o my spirit -- Yes, yes, my heart -- Thee with tender care -- And the shepherds returned -- Rejoice, and sing. |
|
Part IV. Come and thank him -- And when eight days were fulfilled -- Immanuel, beloved name -- Ah! my Saviour -- 'Tis well! Thy name, o Lord -- 'Tis thee I would be praising -- Jesus, who didst ever guide me. |
|
Part V. Glory be to God -- Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem -- Where is the new-born king? -- Seek him within my breat -- All darkness flies -- O Lord, my darkened heart enlighten -- And when Herod the King heard it -- With fear why are ye taken? -- And gathering together -- Ah! when shall we see salvation? -- My Lord is king alone -- This proud heart. |
|
Part VI. Lord, when our haughty foes assail us -- Then Herod called the wise men -- Thou traitor -- Naught against the power -- And they, when they had heard the king -- Beside thy cradle here I stand -- And being warned of God -- Depart! enough -- Ye foes of man -- O'er us no more shall fears of hell -- Now vengeance hath been taken. |
