Christmas Carols

Come, Thou Redeemer Of The Earth 2 Lyrics
1. Come, thou Redeemer of the earth,
Come, testify thy Virgin-birth:
All lands admire, all times applaud!
Such is the birth that fits a God.

2. Begotten of no human will,
But of the Spirit, mystick still,
The Word of God in flesh array'd-
The promis'd fruit to man dispiay'd.

3. The Virgin womb that burden gain'd
With Virgin honour all unstain'd:
The banners there of virtue glow;
God in his temple dwells below.

4. Proceeding from his chamber free,
The royal ball of chastity,
Giant of two-fold substance, straight
His destin'd way he runs elate.

5. From God the Father he proceeds;
To God the Father back he speeds:
Proceeds, as far as very hell;
Speeds back, to light ineffable.

6. O Equal to thy Father, thou!
Gird on thy fleshly mantle now:
The weakness of our mortal state
With deathless might invigorate.

7. Thy cradle here shall glitter bright,
And darkness breathe a newer light,
Where endless faith shall shine serene,
And twilight never intervene.

8. All laud to God the Father be,
All praise, Eternal Son, to thee:
All glory, as is ever meet,
To God the Holy Paraclete. Amen.
