Put on thy best array; Lest if thou longer stay Thou lose some minutes of so blest a day. Go run And bid good-morrow to the sun; Welcome his safe return To Capricorn. And that great morn Wherein a God was born, Whose story none can tell But He whose every word's a miracle. Today Almightiness grew weak. The word itself was mute and could not speak. That Jacob's star which made the sun To dazzle if he durst look on, Now mantled o'er in Bethlehem's night, Borrowed a star to show him light. He that begirt each zone, To whom both poles are one, Who grasped the Zodiac in His hand And made it move or stand, Is now by nature man, By stature but a span; Eternity is now grown short; A kind is born without a court; The water thirsts; the fountain's dry; And life, being born, made apt to die. [Chorus]. Then let our praises emulate and vie With His humility! Since He's exiled from the skies That we may rise - From low estate of men Let's sing Him up again! Each man wind up his heart To bear a part In that angelic choir and show His glory high as He was low. Let's sing towards men goodwill and charity, Peace upon earth, glory to God on high! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Browse Carols: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
