See Amid the Winter Snow,
See Amid the Winter Snow, Born for us on earth below, See, the tender Lamb appears, Promised from eternal years. Hail, thou ever -blessed morn! Hail, Redemption's happy dawn! Sing through all Jerusalem, Christ is born in Bethlehem. Lo, within a manger lies; He who built the starry skies; He who, throned in height sublime, Sits amid the Cherubim! Say, ye holy shepherds, say, What your joyful news to-day; Wherefore have ye left your sheep On the lonely mountains steeps? Hail, thou ever- blessed morn! Hail, Redemption's happy dawn! Sing through all Jerusalem, Christ is born in Bethlehem. As we watched at dead of night, Lo, we saw a wondrous light; Angels singing Peace on earth Told us of a Saviour's birth. Sacred Infant, all divine, What a tender love was Thine, Thus to come from highest bliss; Down to such a world as this! Hail, thou ever- blessed morn! Hail, Redemption's happy dawn! Sing through all Jerusalem, Christ is born in Bethlehem. Teach, O teach us, Holy Child, By Thy face so meek and mild, Teach us to resemble Thee, In Thy sweet humility. |
