An earthly tree a heavenly fruit it bare, A case of clay contained a crown immortal, A crown of crowns, a King whose cost and care Redeemed poor man, whose race before was thrall To death, to doom, to pains of everlasting, By His sweet death, scores, stripes and often fasting. 2. A star above the stars, a sun of light, Whose blessed beams this wretched earth bespread With hope of heaven and of God's Son the sight, Which in our flesh and sinful soul lay dead. O faith, O hope, O joys renowned forever O lively death that deathless shall persever! 3. Then let us sing the lullabies of sleep To this sweet Babe, born to awake us all From drowsy sin that made old Adam weep, And by his fault gave to mankind the fall. For lo! this day, the birthday, day of days, Summons our songs to give Him laud and praise. 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 #
