Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #136 (1854) Meter: Irregular Incipit: 11512 55323 43211 Lyrics:
1.
Hither, ye faithful, haste with songs of triumph,
To Bethlehem haste, the Lord of life to meet:
To you this day is born a Prince and Savior;
2.
O Jesus, for such wondrous condescension,
Our praises and reverence are an offering meet,
Now is the Word made flesh and dwells among us.
3.
Shout his almighty name, ye choirs of angels,
And let the celestial courts his praise repeat;
Unto our God be glory in the highest,
O come and let us worship,
(Repeat previous line),
O come and let us worship at his feet.
