Blessèd Gift

O Thou bless­èd gift from Heav­en

Words Thy worth can nev­er tell!

Sweetest boon to mor­tals giv­en

Is our Lord Im­ma­nu­el.

Blessèd gift

O gift from Heav­en

Words Thy worth can nev­er tell;

Sweetest boon to mor­tals giv­en

Blessèd gift

Im­ma­nu­el.

Thro’ the long and trou­bled ag­es

Heaven’s pre­cious pro­mise fell;

All the words of seers and sag­es

Told of Christ Im­ma­nu­el.

God had loved

and God had spok­en

God had loved

and loved so well;

Lo! He sent the dear­est to­ken

Lo! He gave Im­ma­nu­el.
