Halleluiah! Christ is born!

She will give birth to a son and you are to give him the name Jesus; 
for he shall save his people from their sins. Matthew 1:21
 

Halleluiah! Christ is born!



Angels from the realms of glory
Wing your flight o'er all the earth;
Ye who sang creation's story
Now proclaim Messiah's birth:

Come and worship, 

come and worship
Worship Christ, the newborn King
.

Shepherds, in the fields abiding,
Watching o'er your flocks by night,
God with man is now residing,
Yonder shines the infant light:

Come and worship, 

come and worship
Worship Christ, the newborn King.


Sages, leave your contemplations
Brighter visions beam afar,
Seek the great Desire of nations,
Ye have seen his natal star:

Come and worship, come and worship
Worship Christ, the newborn King.


Though an infant now we view him,
He shall fill his Father's throne,
Gather all the nations to him,
Every knee shall then bow down:

Come and worship, come and worship
Worship Christ, the newborn King.


All creation, join in praising
God the Father, Spirit, Son,
Evermore your voices raising,
To eternal Three in One:

Come and worship, come and worship
Worship Christ, the newborn King.


Angels from the Realms of Glory 
by Scottish Poet James Montgomery,  1816
