As on the night before this happy Morn, A blessed Angel unto Shepherds told, Where in a stable He was poorly born, Whom nor the earth nor Heav'n of Heav'ns can hold. Thro' Bethl'em rung this News at their return; Yea, Angels sung that God with us was born; And they made mirth because we should not mourn, And they made mirth because we should not mourn. Their Angel carols sing we then; To God on High all Glory be, For Peace on earth bestoweth He, And sheweth favour unto men. 2. This favour Christ vouchsafed for our sake; To buy us Thrones, He in a Manger lay; Our weakness took, that we His Strength might take, And was disrobed, that He might us array; Our flesh He wore, our sins to wear away; Our curse He bore, that we escape it may: And wept for us that we might sing for aye. And wept for us that we might sing for aye. With Angels, therefore, sing again; To God on High all Glory be, For Peace on earth bestoweth He, And sheweth favour unto men.
