Chorus: Risen Saviour, King of glory,
Come today in mystery;
Let us share Your death and rising
Till You come in majesty.
We long for you, O Lord,
We long for you, O Lord
Come, make us one with you in love;
We long for you, O Lord.
2. We cannot rest, O Lord,
We cannot rest, O Lord.
Come, Lamb of God and give us peace;
We cannot rest, O Lord.
3. We hunger for you, Lord;
We hunger for you, Lord.
Come, feed us now with living bread;
We hunger for you, Lord.
4. Your flesh is strength, O Lord,
Your flesh is strength, O Lord.
Come, holy strong One, make us strong;
Your flesh is strength, O Lord.
Christmas and Epiphany
1 39. A GREAT AND MIGHTY WONDER
A great and mighty wonder,
50
A full and holy cure!
The Virgin bears the Infant,
With Virgin-honour pure.
Repeat the hymn again!
“To God on high be glory,
And peace on earth to men!”
2. The Word becomes incarnate
And yet remains on high!
And cherubim sing anthems
To Shepherds from the sky.
Repeat the hymn again!
“To God on high be glory,
And peace on earth to men!”
3. While thus they sing your Monarch,
Those bright angelic bands,
Rejoice, ye vales and mountains,
Ye oceans clap your hands.
Repeat the hymn again!
“To God on high be glory,
And peace on earth to men!”
4. Since all ye comes to ransom,
By all be he adored,
The infant born in Bethl’em,
The Saviour and the Lord.
Repeat the hymn again!
“To God on high be glory,
And peace on earth to men!”
5. And idol forms shall perish,
And error shall decay,
And Christ shall wield his sceptre.
Our Lord and God for ay.
Repeat the hymn again!
“To God on high be glory,
And peace on earth to men!” Amen.
