From East to West, from Shore to Shore
Author: John Ellerton, 1826-93; Coelius Sedulius, d. 450 Hymnal: Worship Supplement #709 (1969) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 From east to west, from shore to shore,
Let every heart awake and sing
The holy Child whom Mary bore,
The Christ, the everlasting King.
2 Behold, the world's Creator wears
The form and fashion of a slave;
Our very flesh our Maker shares,
His fallen creature, man, to save.
3 For this how wondrously he wrought!
A maiden, in her lowly place,
Became, in ways beyond all thought,
The chosen vessel of his grace.
4 And while the angels in the sky
Sang praise above the silent field,
To shepherds poor, the Lord most high,
The one great Shepherd, was revealed.
5 All glory for this blesséd morn
To God the Father ever be;
All praise to thee, O Virgin-born,
All praise, O Holy Ghost, to thee. Amen. Topics: The Christian Year Second Sunday After Christmas Tune Title: CHRISTUM WIR SOLLEN LOBEN SCHON
