In the midst of the Doctors Amazed at His lore, The Holy Child sitteth, Whom angels adore, God's Wisdom eternal. With a grace most attractive, Their teaching He hears, He asketh them questions, Who orders the sphere With knowledge supernal. 2. And His sorrowing parents In wonder behold Their Jesus conversing With learning untold, Deep mysteries revealing. Then His Mother most gently Her Child doth upbraid, And says how His absence Has made her afraid, -- And chides Him thus dealing. 3. With His Eyes full of sweetness, That brought back her joy, He tells her that only His Father's employ Must be His high mission. But to her His subjection He lovingly yields To dwell in the workshop By Nazareth's fields, In lowly condition. 4. There His wisdom and stature Increase year by year, -- To God and to mortals He groweth most dear -- In favour progressing. Now to all, who with Mary Hide this in their heart, May Jesus our Saviour Vouchsafe to impart Epiphany blessing. 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 # |
