1. To us a child of royal birth, The Heir of promise, now is giv’n: th’Invisible appears on earth— the Son of Man, the God of Heav’n.
2. A Saviour born, in love supreme, He comes our fallen souls to raise; He comes His people to redeem In matchless love and boundless grace.
3. The Christ, by raptured seers foretold, Filled with th’eternal Spirit’s pow’r, Great Prophet, Priest, and King behold, And Lord of all the worlds adore.
4. The Lord of Hosts— the God most high, Shuns not His glorious throne to leave— With joy we welcome from the sky, with faith into our hearts receive.
