O Miracle of Love and Might!

lyricist: Georg Weissel, 1639
Composer: Scott Werdebaugh, 2017

O mi­ra­cle of love and might!

The Lord of all

the heav­en­ly Light

Low in a sta­ble lieth;

For us He bears the toils and tears

Of earth: for us He di­eth.

O Christ

Thy glo­ri­ous po­ver­ty

Makes all Thy peo­ple rich in Thee:

To wealth un­told it leads them.

With heav­en­ly wine and bread di­vine

Thy thirst and hun­ger feeds them.

Ye saints on earth

no more be sad:

This ho­ly Babe will make you glad

With joy that knows no mea­sure:

His life above is peace and love

And pure un­fad­ing plea­sure.

Then let your hearts be bold and strong

To echo forth the an­gel song—

To God be glo­ry giv­en;

On earth be peace

nor ev­er cease

Goodwill to men from Heav­en.
