VERSE 1:
Angels from the realms of glory,
Wing your flight o’er all the earth;
Ye who sang creation’s story
Now proclaim Messiah’s birth.
CHORUS:
Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King.
VERSE 2:
Shepherds, in the fields abiding,
Watching o’er your flocks by night,
God with man is now residing;
Yonder shines the infant light:
CHORUS:
Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King.
VERSE 3:
Sages, leave your contemplations,
Brighter visions beam afar;
Seek the great Desire of nations;
Ye have seen His natal star.
CHORUS:
Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King.
VERSE 4:
Saints, before the altar bending,
Watching long in hope and fear;
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
In His temple shall appear.
CHORUS:
Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King.
Angels from the realms of glory,
Wing your flight o’er all the earth;
Ye who sang creation’s story
Now proclaim Messiah’s birth.
CHORUS:
Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King.
