Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David ‎#XCVIIc

XCVIIc. Christ's Incarnation

1 The Lord is come; the heavens proclaim
His birth; the nations learn his name;
An unknown star directs the road
Of eastern sages to their GOD.

2 All ye bright armies of the skies,
Go, worship where the Saviour lies;
Angels and kings before him bow,
Those gods on high, and gods below.

3 Let idols totter to the ground,
And their own worshipers confound:
But Zion shall his glories sing
And earth confess her sovereign king.
