"Angels adore Him,
Hark! We seem to hear
Echoes from Heaven,
Angel echoes clear.
Jesus the mighty
Came to earth to bring
Priceless redemption
Christ our Prophet,
Priest and King!"
- Flora Kirkland

And praises sing to God the King,

L'Innocence
William-Adolphe Bouguereau
(1893)
What child is this, who, laid to rest,
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The babe, the son of Mary.

Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The babe, the son of Mary.
Why lies He in such mean estate,
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christians, fear, for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
Nails, spears shall pierce him through,
the cross he bore for me, for you.
Hail, hail the Word made flesh,
the Babe, the Son of Mary.
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christians, fear, for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
Nails, spears shall pierce him through,
the cross he bore for me, for you.
Hail, hail the Word made flesh,
the Babe, the Son of Mary.
So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh,
Come, peasant, king, to own him.
The King of kings salvation brings,
Let loving hearts enthrone him.
Raise, raise a song on high,
The virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born,
The babe, the Son of Mary.
Come, peasant, king, to own him.
The King of kings salvation brings,
Let loving hearts enthrone him.
Raise, raise a song on high,
The virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born,
The babe, the Son of Mary.
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The babe, the son of Mary.

Set to the tune of "Greensleeves"
an English folksong
“Those He redeemed
from the hand of the foe,
those He gathered
from the lands,
from east and west,
from north and south.”
Psalm 107:2
How sweetly o’er
the mountain of Zion,
lovely Zion,
The anthem of ages
comes sweeping along;
The anthem of the faithful,
we hear, and, rejoicing,
Our hearts in glad measure
keep tune with the song.
the kingdom now is opened,
The seals are all broken;
proclaim it afar;
From bondage
and oppression
by Him we are delivered,
The Lion of Judah,
the bright Morning Star.
all glory everlasting,
The cross and its banner
triumphant shall wave;
Hosanna in the highest,
all glory everlasting,
The Lion of Judah
His people will save.
the mountain of Zion,
lovely Zion,
The anthem of ages
comes sweeping along;
The anthem of the faithful,
we hear, and, rejoicing,
Our hearts in glad measure
keep tune with the song.
Refrain
O the Lion of Judah
hath triumphed forever,
O the Lion of Judah
is mighty and strong.
O happy, happy tidings, hath triumphed forever,
O the Lion of Judah
is mighty and strong.
the kingdom now is opened,
The seals are all broken;
proclaim it afar;
From bondage
and oppression
by Him we are delivered,
The Lion of Judah,
the bright Morning Star.
Refrain
Hosanna in the highest,all glory everlasting,
The cross and its banner
triumphant shall wave;
Hosanna in the highest,
all glory everlasting,
The Lion of Judah
His people will save.
