Hail! Happy Morn (Blenkhorn)

O hap­py morn

we wel­come thee

With laugh­ter and with song;

Thy hours so bright are our de­light

Thy joy we would pro­long.

Hail! hap­py morn!

How bless­èd was thy dawn­ing!

Hail! hap­py

joy­ous morn!

When Christ the Lord was born.

Hail! hap­py morn!

How bless­èd was thy dawn­ing!

Hail! hap­py

joy­ous morn!

When Christ the Lord was born.

No oth­er day is half so bright

No oth­er day so dear;

For Je­sus’ birth brought Heav’n to earth

And filled the world with cheer.

And as the years roll swift­ly by

Thy glo­ries we will sing;

We’ll raise in love our hearts ab­ove

And praise our bless­èd king.
