Lyrics See Amid the Winters Snow - Steeleye Span

See Amid the Winters Snow

Hail, thou ever blessed morn
Hail, redemption’s happy dawn
Sing through all Jerusalem
Christ is born in Bethlehem
See amid the winter’s snow
Born for us on earth below
See the tender Lamb appears
Promised from eternal years
Hail, thou ever blessed morn
Hail, redemption’s happy dawn
Sing through all Jerusalem
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Lo, within a manger lies
He who built the starry skies
He who throned in height sublime
Sits amid the Cherubim
Hail, thou ever blessed morn
Hail, redemption’s happy dawn
Sing through all Jerusalem
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Say, ye holy shepherds, say
What your joyful news today
Wherefore have ye left your sheep
On the lonely mountain steep?
Hail, thou ever blessed morn
Hail, redemption’s happy dawn
Sing through all Jerusalem
Christ is born in Bethlehem
As we watched at dead of night
Lo, we saw a wondrous sight
Angels singing, peace on earth
Told us of our Savior’s birth
Hail, thou ever blessed morn
Hail, redemption’s happy dawn
Sing through all Jerusalem
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Sacred infant, all divine
What a tender love was thine
Thus to come from highest bliss
Down to such a world as this
Hail, thou ever blessed morn
Hail, redemption’s happy dawn
Sing through all Jerusalem
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Teach, o teach us, holy child
By Thy face so meek and mild
Teach us to resemble Thee
In Thy sweet humility
Hail, thou ever blessed morn
Hail, redemption’s happy dawn
Sing through all Jerusalem
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Hail, thou ever blessed morn
Hail, redemption’s happy dawn
Sing through all Jerusalem
Christ is born in Bethlehem
