Away, dark thoughts, awake my joys, Awake, in glory sing A song to celebrate the birth Of Christ our God and King, Of Christ our God and King. O happy night that brought forth light Which makes the blind to see; The Day-spring from on high came down To cheer and visit thee. To cheer and visit thee. [Chorus] Noel, Noel, Loudly let the welcome ring! Noel, Noel, On the Birthday of our King. 2. The wakeful shepherds near their flocks Were watchful for the morn; And better news from Heav'n was brought, Our Saviour Christ was born, Our Saviour Christ was born. In Bethlehem town the Infant lay, Within a place obscure; O little Bethlehem, poor in walls, But rich in furniture, But rich in furniture. [Chorus] 3. Since Heav'n is now come down on earth, Hither the angels fly; Hark! how the heav'nly choirs do sing, "Glory to God on high," Glory to God on high." The news is spread, the Church is glad, Simeon his lullaby Sings with the Infant in his arms, "Now let Thy servant die," "Now let Thy servant die." [Chorus] 4. Wise men from far beheld the star That was their faithful guide; Until it pointed out the Babe, And Him they glorified. And Him they glorified. If Heav'n and earth rejoice and sing, Shall we our Christ deny? Who, born for man, brings us to Him; All praise to God on high, All praise to God on high.
