1 Savior of the nations, come,
show yourself the Virgin's son.
Fill with wonder, all the earth,
that our God chose such a birth.
2 Not by human power of seed
did the woman's womb conceive;
only by the Spirit's breath
was the Word of God made flesh.
3 Christ laid down his majesty,
passed thro' dark Gethsemane;
though he left his Father's home,
Christ now sits on God's own throne.
4 Christ in glory, intercede
for your creatures' suffering need;
let your resurrecting power
soon complete the victory hour.
5 Praise to you, O Lord, we sing;
praise to Christ, our newborn King!
With the Father, Spirit, one,
let your lasting kingdom come.
