On Eastern Plain Reclining
Author: Irvin H. Mack Appears in 2 hymnals Refrain First Line: Rejoice! ye sages hoary Lyrics: 1 On eastern plain reclining,
In dark and stilly night,
The shepherds see the shining
Of glorious, heav’nly light.
To shepherds poor and lowly,
Amazed at such a sight;
They sang of Christ the holy,
His mission and his might.
Refrain:
Rejoice! ye sages hoary,
Repeat the wondrous story,
The Lord of life and glory
Is born our King today.
2 Thro’ long unnumbered aeons,
Vast multitudes unborn
Will sing in joyful paeans
Of Christ on Christmas morn.
As angels sang in glory
Of Christ, our Saviour’s birth,
So men shall chant the story
Of peace, good-will on earth. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [On eastern plain reclining]
