Hymns for the Nativity of Our Lord, 2

Ye heavenly choir, Assist me to sing,
And strike the soft lyre, And honour our King:
His mighty salvation Demands all our praise,
Our best adoration, And loftiest lays.

All glory to God, Who ruleth on high,
And now hath bestow'd And sent from the sky
Christ Jesus the Saviour, Poor mortals to bless:
The pledge of His favour. The seal of His peace.
