Henry Smart, James Montgomery – Angels from the Realms of Glory
Lyrics
Verse 1 Angels from the realms of glory, Wing your flight o’er all the earth; Ye who sang creation’s story Now proclaim Messiah’s birth. Chorus Come and worship, come and worship, Worship Christ, the newborn King. Verse 2 Shepherds, in the field abiding, Watching o’er your flocks by night, God with us is now residing; Yonder shines the infant light: Verse 3 Sages, leave your contemplations, Brighter visions beam afar; Seek the great Desire of nations; Ye have seen His natal star. Verse 4 Saints, before the altar bending, Watching long in hope and fear; Suddenly the Lord, descending, In His temple shall appear. Verse 5 Though an Infant now we view Him, He shall fill His Father’s throne, Gather all the nations to Him; Every knee shall then bow down: Verse 6 All creation, join in praising God, the Father, Spirit, Son, Evermore your voices raising To th’eternal Three in One.
