All My Heart This Night Rejoices

1. All my heart this night re- joi- ces, As I hear, Far and near, Sweet- est an- gel voi- ces; "Christ is born," their choirs are sing- ing, Till the air Ev'r- y- where Now with joy is ring- ing.

2. For it dawns,\- the pro- mised mor- row Of His birth Who the earth Res- cues from her sor- row. God to wear our form de- scen- deth, Of His grace To our race Here His Son He lend- eth:

3. Yea, so tru- ly for us car- eth, That His Son All we've done As our off'r- ing bear- eth; As our Lamb who, dy- ing for us, Bears our load, And to God Doth in peace re- store us.

4. Hark! a voice from yon- der man- ger, Soft and sweet, Doth en- treat, "Flee from woe and dan- ger; Breth- ren come, from all doth grieve you You are freed, All you need I will sure- ly give you."

5. Come then, let us has- ten yon- der; Here let all, Great and small, Kneel in awe and won- der. Love Him who with love is yearn- ing; Hail the Star That from far Bright with hope is burn- ing!
