Awake, Awake the sacred song To our incarnate Lord; Let every heart, and every tongue, Adore th' eternal Word. 2. That awful Word, that sovereign Power By whom the worlds were made, (O happy morn, illustrious hour!) Was once in flesh arrayed! 3. Then shone almighty power and love In all their glorious forms, When Jesus left his throne above, To dwell with sinful worms. 4. To dwell with misery below, The Saviour left the skies; And sunk to wretchedness and wo, That worthless men might rise. 5. Adorning angels turned their songs To hail the joyful day; With rapture then let mortal tongues Their grateful worship pay. 6. What glory, Lord, to thee is due! With wonder we adore; But could we sing as angels do, Our highest praise were poor. 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 # |
