Hail to the Lord who comes

Author: John Ellerton, 1826-93 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #157 (1986) Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord who comes, Comes to his temple gate! Not with his angel host, Not in his kingly state; No shouts proclaim him nigh, No crowds his coming wait; 2 But borne upon the throne Of Mary's gentle breast, Watched by her duteous love, In her fond arms at rest; Thus to his Father's house He comes, the heavenly guest. 3 There Joseph at her side In reverent wonder stands; And, filled with holy joy, Old Simeon in his hands Takes up the promised Child, The glory of all lands. 4 Hail to the great First-born Whose ransom-price they pay! The Son before all worlds, The Child of man to-day, That he might ransom us Who still in bondage lay. 5 O Light of all the earth, Thy children wait for thee! Come to thy temples here, That we, from sin set free, Before thy Father's face May all presented be!
