angel hosts his praises sing:
powers, dominions, bow before him,
and extol our God and King;
let no tongue on earth be silent,
every voice in concert ring,
evermore and evermore!

and unwearied praises be:

Child in the manger
Author: Lachlan Macbean (1853-1931); Mary MacDonald (1789-1872) Meter: 5.5.5.3 D Appears in 27 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:7-16 Lyrics: 1 Child in the manger,
infant of Mary;
outcast and stranger,
Lord of all!
Child who inherits
all our transgressions,
all our demerits
on him fall.
2 Once the most holy
child of salvation
gently and lowly
lived below;
now, as our glorious
mighty Redeemer,
see him victorious
o'er each foe.
3 Prophets foretold him
infant of wonder;
angels behold him
on his throne;
worthy our Saviour
of all their praises;
happy forever
are his own.
Original Gaelic text:
1 Leanabh an àihg,
an leanabh bh'aig Màiri;
rugadh an stàbull
Rìgh nan dùl:
thànig don fhàsach,
dh'fhuling nar na-àite -
son' iad an àireamh
bhitheas dha dlùth!
2 Ged a bhios leanaban
aig rìghrean na talmhainn,
'n greadnachas garbh
's anabarr mùirn,
's geàrr gus am falbh iad
's fàsaidh iad anfhann,
an àilleachd 's an dealbh
a' searg 'san ùir.
3 Cha b'ionnan 's an t-Uan
a tháinig gar fuasgladh,
iriosal stuama
ghluais e 'n tùs;
e naomha gun truailleachd.
Cruithear an t-sluaigh,
dh'èirich e suas
le buaidh on ùir.
4 Leanabh an àigh
mar dh'aithris na faidhean,
's na h-ainglean àrd'
b'e miann an sùl:
's e 's airidh ar gràdh
's ar n-urram thoirt dha:
is sona an àireamh
bhitheas dha dlùth. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnate - Christmas and Epiphany Used With Tune: BUNESSAN

Where is this stupendous stranger
Author: Christopher Smart (1722-1771) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 12 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:1-18 First Line: Where is this stupendous stranger? Lyrics: 1 Where is this stupendous stranger?
Gentle shepherd now, advise.
Lead me to my Master's manger,
show me where my Savior lies.
O Most Mighty! O Most Holy!
Far beyond the seraph's thought,
art thou then so weak and lowly
as unheeded prophets taught?
2 O the magnitude of meekness!
Worth from worth immortal sprung;
O the strength of infant weakness,
if eternal is so young!
God all bounteous, all creative,
whom no ills from good dissuade,
is incarnate, and a native
of the very world he made. Topics: Hymns and Spiritual Songs Advent and Christmas Used With Tune: MARIPOSA
