See amid the winter's snow,
Born for us on earth below;
See the tender lamb appears,
Promised from eternal years.
Chorus:
Hail thou ever-blessed morn!
Hail redemption's happy dawn!
Sing through all Jerusalem,
Christ is born in Bethlehem!
Chorus
Lo within a manger lies
He who built the starry skies;
He who, throned in height sublime,
Sits amid the cherubim.
Chorus
Say, ye holy shepherds, say
What your joyful news today;
Wherefore have ye left your sheep
On the lonely mountain steep?
Chorus
'As we watched at dead of night,
Lo, we saw a wondrous sight;
Angels singing "Peace on earth"
Told us of our Saviour's birth.'
Chorus
Sacred infant, all divine,
What a tender love was thine,
Thus to come from highest bliss
Down to such a world as this.
Chorus
