1 Heav’nly angels, listen
While earth’s children sing
Songs of joy and gladness
To their mighty king;
Let the harps be silent
In bright beams above,
When we sing of Jesus
And His wondrous love.
Refrain:
Heav’nly angels, listen
While earth’s children sing,
Singing loud hosannas
To their mighty king.
2 Gentle Savior, listen
While we sing Thy praise;
Jesus loves the children,
Knows their thoughts and ways;
Once in childhood’s pleasures
Jesus took delight;
Now He watches o’er us
Morning, noon and night. [Refrain]
3 O the love of Jesus,
Wonderful, sublime!
How its power increases
With the march of time!
’Twas for love He suffered
Pain and death and shame;
Praise Him, all creation,
Praise His holy name. [Refrain]
