Good news from heaven the angels bring Glad tidings to the earth they sing To us this day a child is given To crown us with the joy of heaven This is the Christ, our God and Lord Who in all need shall aid afford He will himself our savior be And from our sins will set us free All hail, thou noble guest this morn Whose love did not the sinner scorn In my distress thou come'st to me What thanks shall i return to thee? This is the Christ, our God and Lord Who in all need shall aid afford
He will himself our savior be And from our sins will set us free Were earth a thousand times as fair Beset with gold and j**els rare She yet were far too poor to be A narrow cradle, Lord, for thee... Praise God upon his heavenly throne Who gave to us his only son For this his hosts on joyful wing A blest New Year of mercy sing This is the Christ, our God and Lord Who in all need shall aid afford He will himself our savior be And from our sins will set us free
