See! amid the winter’s snow
Born for us on earth below,
See! the tender Lamb appears.
Promised from eternal years.
Chorus: Hail, thou ever-blessed morn:
Hall, 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 heights sublime,
Sits amid the Cherubim.
Say, ye holy shepherds, say
What your joyful news to-day;
Wherefore have ye left your sheep
On the lonely mountain steep?
“As we watched at dead of night,
Lo! we saw a wondrous light;
Angels, singing peace on earth,
Told us of a Saviour’s birth.
Sacred Infant, all Divine,
What a tender love was Thine,
Thus to come from highest bliss,
Down to such a world as this.
Teach, O teach us, Holy Child
By Thy face so meek and mild,
Teach us to resemble Thee
In Thy sweet humility.
