All praise to thee, Eternal Lord

Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546; Anonymous, 1858 Appears in 110 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All praise to thee, Eternal Lord, Clothed in a garb of flesh and blood; Choosing a manger for thy throne, While worlds on worlds are thine alone. 2 Once did the skies before thee bow, A Virgin's arms contain thee now; Angels, who did in thee rejoice, Now listen for thine infant voice. 3 A little child, thou art our guest, That weary ones in thee may rest; Forlorn and lowly is thy birth, That we may rise to heaven from earth. 4 Thou comest in the darksome night, To make us children of the light, To make us in the realms divine, Like thine own angels, 'round thee shine. 5 All this for us thy love hath done, By this to thee our love is won, For this we tune our cheerful lays, And shout our thanks in ceaseless praise.
