G D G
All praise to thee, eternal Lord
C D
Clothed in a garb of flesh and blood;
G D G
Choosing A manger for thy throne,
C D G
While worlds on worlds are thine alone.
[Verse 2]
G D G
Once did the skies before thee bow;
C D
A virgin's arms contain you now:
G D G
Angels who did in thee rejoice
C D G
Now listen for thine infant voice.
[Verse 3]
G D G
A little Child, thou art our guest,
C D
That weary ones in thee may rest;
G D G
Forlorn and lowly is thy birth,
C D G
That we may rise to heav'n from earth.
[Verse 4]
G D G
Thou comest in the darksome night,
C D
To make us children of the light;
G D G
To make us, in the realms divine
C D G
Like thine own Angels round thee shine.
[Verse 5]
G D G
All this for us thy love hath done;
C D
By this to thee our love is won:
G D G
For this we tune our joyful lays,
C D G
And shout our thanks in ceaseless praise.
