Lyrics: 1 Unto us a boy is born!
King of all creation,
came he to a world forlorn,
the Lord of every nation,
the Lord of every nation.
2 Christ from heaven descending low
comes, on earth a stranger;
ox and ass their owner know;
becradled in the manger,
becradled in the manger.
3 Herod then with fear was filled:
"A prince," he said, "in Jewry!"
All the little boys he killed
at Bethlem in his fury,
at Bethlem in his fury.
4 Now may Mary's son, who came
so long ago to love us,
lead us all with hearts aflame
unto the joys above us,
unto the joys above us.
5 Omega and Alpha he!
Let the organ thunder,
while the choir with peals of glee
doth rend the air asunder,
doth rend the air asunder. Used With Tune: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR Text Sources: German carol, 15th century

Sing of God Made Manifest
Author: Carl P. Daw Jr. Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Nativity/Christmas; Christian Year Epiphany; Christian Year Baptism of Jesus; Christian Year Transfiguration; Incarnation; Jesus Christ Birth Lyrics: 1 Sing of God made manifest
in a child robust and blest,
to whose home in Bethlehem
where a star had guided them,
magi came and gifts unbound,
signs mysterious and profound:
myrrh and frankincense and gold
grave and God and king foretold.
2 Sing of God made manifest
when at Jordan John confessed,
“I should be baptized by you,
but your bidding I will do.”
Then from heaven a double sign –
dove-like Spirit, voice divine –
hailed the true Anointed One:
“This is my beloved Son.”
3 Sing of God made manifest
when Christ came as wedding guest
and at Cana gave a sign,
turning water into wine;
further still was love revealed
as he taught, forgave, and healed,
bringing light and life to all
who would listen to God’s call.
4 Sing of God made manifest
on the cloud-capped mountain’s crest,
where the law and prophets waned
so that Christ alone remained:
glimpse of glory, pledge of grace,
given as Jesus set his face
towards the waiting cross and grave,
sign of hope that God would save. Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Used With Tune: SALZBURG

Wisdom from on High Is Dawning
Author: Adam Michael Wood Meter: Irregular Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Jesus Christ Birth of Lyrics: 1 Wisdom from on high is dawning.
Even now a golden ray
shines into a world of shadows
from the realms of endless day.
Hidden womb who birthed the heavens
in the womb now hides away.
2 In her heart the joy of heaven,
in her hands the poor of earth,
on her back all human sorrow,
in her laugh all human mirth.
God most human, God most holy,
God incarnate comes to birth.
3 All creation stands in wonder
as her glory fills the sky.
Down in adoration falling,
we her children raise the cry:
She who is and was and evermore shall be,
alleluia! God most high! Scripture: Isaiah 60:1-3 Used With Tune: PICARDY
