From East to West, from Shore to Shore

Author: Coelius Sedulius; John Ellerton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 40 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 2:7 Lyrics: 1 From east to west, from shore to shore, let earth awake and sing-- the holy Child, whom Mary bore, the Christ, the Lord, the King! 2 For lo! the world's creator wears the fashion of a slave; our human flesh the God-head bears, a human race to save. 3 For this how wondrously he wrought! A maiden in her place became in ways beyond all thought the vessel of his grace. 4 He shrank not from the oxen's stall, nor scorned the manger bed; and he, whose bounty feedeth all, at Mary's breast was fed. 5 To shepherds poor the Lord most high, Great Shepherd, was revealed While angel choirs sang joyously above the midnight field: 6 "All glory be to God above, and on the earth be peace to all who long to taste his love, till time itself shall cease."
