The Word takes flesh, the dark ignites,
Eternal dawn in frailest light.
A manger throne, the heavens quake
What King is this, for sinners’ sake?

The angels sing, the skies resound,
The shepherds bow on holy ground.
The stars declare, the wise draw near
What Child is this, whom we revere?

Love bends the skies, a Son is given,
The key to earth, the gate of heaven.
Behold the Lamb, end of world’s despair,
God dwells with us, beyond compare.
