The Advent

Glory to God! this ad­vent morn

My soul ex­ult­ing sings

Today of old on earth was born

The glo­ri­ous King of kings.

Today of old on earth was born

The glo­ri­ous King of kings.

Let ev­ery idle fol­ly fall

And ev­ery dis­cord cease;

He reigns in Heav­en

the Lord of all

O’er all the Prince of Peace;

He reigns in Heav­en

the Lord of all

O’er all the Prince of Peace.

Glory to God! in Christ the Lord

We own His name di­vine;

Earth

Heav­en

the Spir­it and the Word

Robed in His beau­ty shine;

Earth

Heav­en

the Spir­it and the Word

Robed in His beau­ty shine.

Where an­gels in their glo­ry bow

They on Mes­si­ah call;

And

in His earth­ly tem­ple

now

We crown Him Lord of all.

And

in His earth­ly tem­ple

now

We crown Him Lord of all.
