Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11665 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 In the bliss of old predicted,
Heav’n and earth to-day rejoice;
Men and angels, one in spirit,
Shout aloud in gleeful voice;
For, to those in darkness drear,
God in human flesh is near.
2 Cave and manger show the mystery;
Shepherds tell the wondrous tale;
Bearing gifts to lay before Him
From the east the Magi hail;
Taught by angel words to sing,
We unworthy praises bring.
3 Glory be to God eternal!
Peace on earth its reign begin!
For the one Desire of nations
Comes to save us from our sin;
Freedom He will now bestow
From the bondage of the foe. Languages: English Tune Title: VIGGO
