E1:An_gels from the realms of glo_ry,/wing your flight o'er all the earth;/ye who sang cre_a_tion's sto_ry/now pro_claim Mes_si_ah's birth:/${R=}Come and wor_ship, come and wor_ship,/wor_ship Christ, the new_born king.

|
E2:She_pherds, in the field a_bi_ding,/watch_ing o'er your flocks by night,/God with us is now re_si_ding;/yon_der shines the in_fant light:
|

|
|
E3:Sa_ges, leave your con_tem_pla_tions,/brigh_ter vi_sions beam a_far;/seek the great De_sire of na_tions;/ye have seen his na_tal star:
|

|
|
E4:Saints, be_fore the al_tar bend_ing,/Watch_ing long in hope and fear;/Sud_den_ly the Lord, des_cend_ing,/In His tem_ple shall ap_pear.
|

|
|
E5:Sin_ners, wrung with true re_pen_tance,/Doomed for guilt to end_less pains,/Jus_tice now re_vokes the sen_tence,/Mer_cy calls you; break your chains.
|

|
|
E6:Though an In_fant now we view Him,/He shall fill His Fa_ther’s throne,/Ga_ther all the na_tions to Him;/E_very knee shall then bow down:
|

|
|
E7:All cre_a_tion, join in prais_ing/God, the Fa_ther, Spi_rit, Son,/E_ver_more your voi_ces rais_ing/To th’e_ter_nal Three in One.
