Come, ye faithful, Loud exult, with joy exceeding, Alleluya Monarchs' Monarch, From a Virgin womb proceeding, Mighty wonder! 2. Angel of the Counsel, here Sun from star, he doth appear, Born of Maiden: Sun that never knoweth night, Star for ever shining bright, Lustrous ever. 3. As a star his kindred ray, Mary doth her Child display, Like in nature Still undimm'd the star shines on, And the Virgin bears a Son, Pure as ever. 4. Lebanon his cedar tall To the hyssop of the wall Now conformeth: Word on high, he doth assume Human flesh in Mary's womb, God incarnate. 5. Though Esaias had foreshown, Though the Synagogue had known, Yet the truth she will not own, Blind remaining: If her prophets speak in vain, Let her heed a Gentile strain, And from mystick Sibyl gain Light in darkness. 6. No longer then delay; Doubt not what legends say; Why be cast away, A race forlorn? Turn and this Child behold- That very Son, of old In God's writ foretold, A Maid bath borne.
