1. An- gels from the realms of glo- ry, Wing your flight o'er all the earth; Ye who sang cre- a- tion's stor- y Now pro- claim Mes- si- ah's birth. Come and wor- ship, come and wor- ship, Wor- ship Christ, the new- born King.
2. Shep- herds, in the field a- bid- ing, Watch- ing o'er your flocks by night, God with us is now re- sid- ing; Yon- der shines the in- fant light:
3. Sa- ges, leave your con- tem- pla- tions, Bright- er vi- sions beam a- far; Seek the great De- sire of na- tions; Ye have seen His na- tal star.
4. Saints, be- fore the al- tar bend- ing, Watch- ing long in hope and fear; Sud- den- ly the Lord, de- scend- ing, In His tem- ple shall ap- pear.
5. Sin- ners, wrung with true re- pen- tance, Doomed for guilt to end- less pains, Jus- tice now re- vokes the sen- tence, Mer- cy calls you; break your chains.
