Verse 1
Let all together praise our god
before the highest throne;
today God opens heav'n again
and sends the only Son,
and sends the only Son.
Verse 2
From God's right hand the Son descends,
is born an infant small,
and lies in poverty,
his bed a manger in a stall,
a manger in a stall.
Verse 3
O tender Child, you veil in flesh
the splendor of your might;
a servant's garb now wraps the one
who clothed the sky with light,
who clothed the sky with light.
Verse 4
Your mother feeds you tenderly,
sings you a lullaby,
while angels, hailing David's heir,
your glory magnify,
your glory magnify.
Verse 5
A wonderful exchange you make:
you take our flesh and blood,
and in return give us to share
the shining realm of God,
the shining realm of God.
Verse 6
Unlick the door again today
that leads to paradise;
the angel bars the way no more.
To God let praises rise,
to God let praises rise!
