1 Let us all in God rejoice,
Who is pleased to save us;
Praise we Him with heart and voice,
For His Son He gave us.

2 He descends to sorrows here
As a servant lowly,
That in heav'n we may appear
Princes high and holy.

3 Wealth to give He poor became--
Is not this a wonder?
Therefore let us praise His name
While His grace we ponder.

4 Lord, this year Thy favor show,
Banish sin and sadness:
All who fain would have it so
Say A-men with gladness.
