(4x) W: W:2. The Lord, the Lord, the highest God, W:Calls Him His only Son, (2x) W:He bids Him rule the lands abroad, W:And gives him David's throne. (4x) W: W:3. O'er Jacob, Jacob, shall He reign, W:With a peculiar sway, (2x) W:The nations shall His grace obtain, W:His kingdom ne'er decay. (4x) W: W:4. To bring, to bring the glorious news, W:A heavenly form appears, (2x) W:He tells the shepherds of the news, W:And banishes their fears. (4x) W: W:5. 'Go, humble, humble swains,' did say, W:'To David's city fly, (2x) W:The promised Infant born today, W:Doth in a manger lie.' (4x) W: W:6.'With looks, with looks, and hearts serene, W:'Go visit Christ your King,' (2x) W:And straight a flaming troop was seen, W:The shepherds heard them sing. (4x) W: W:7. In worship, worship, so divine, W: Let saints employ their tongues,(2x) W:With the celestial hosts we join, W:And loud repeat their songs. (4x) W: W:8. All glory, glory to God on high! W:And heav'nly peace on Earth, (2x) W:Goodwill to men, to angels joy, W:At our Redeemer's birth.
