| No more sadness now, nor fasting
|
| Now we put our grief away;
|
| God came down, the Everlasting
|
| Taking human flesh to-day
|
| God came down on earth a stranger
|
| Working out His mighty plan;
|
| God was cradled in a manger
|
| Very God and very man
|
| There were shepherds once abiding
|
| In the field to watch by night
|
| And they saw the clouds dividing;
|
| And the sky above was bright
|
| And a glory shone around them
|
| On the grass as they wore laid;
|
| And a holy Angel found them
|
| And their hearts were sore afraid
|
| «Fear ye not,» he said, «for cheerful
|
| Are the tidings that I bring
|
| Unto you, so weak and fearful
|
| Christ is born, the Lord and King»
|
| As the Angel told the story
|
| Of the Saviour’s lowly birth
|
| Multitudes were singing «Glory
|
| Be to God, and peace on earth.»
|
| Angel choir sing Hallelujah
|
| God’s redeeming love proclaim
|
| Let Thy Church, in every nation
|
| Sing the glory of Thy name
|
| Angel choir sing Hallelujah
|
| God’s redeeming love proclaim
|
| Let Thy Church, in every nation
|
| Sing the glory of Thy name
|
