Be Welcome Again, God's Angels Bright
Author: N. F. S. Grundtvig Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #94 (1927) Meter: 9.8.9.8.9.8 Lyrics: 1 Be welcome again, God’s angels bright,
From mansions of light and glory
To publish anew this wintry night
The news of your joyful story;
Ye herald to all that yearn for light
New Year after winter hoary.
2 With gladness we hear your sweet refrain
In praise of God’s glory solely;
Ye will not this blessed night disdain
To enter our dwellings lowly
And bring to each yearning heart again
The joy that is pure and holy.
3 In homes of the poor, in mansions rare,
With lights thro' the windows glowing,
We harbor the babes as sweet and fair
As flowers in meadows growing;
Oh, deign with these little ones to share
The joy from your message flowing.
4 Then sweetly they dream of Bethlehem
And, tho' we may pause and ponder.
They truly envision Him that came
And dwelt among shepherds yonder.
They dream they are standing there with them
Whose songs they have heard with wonder.
5 They see in the manger th'Christ-child still
With angels around Him singing
The song of God’s glory: peace, good will,
Which joy to all hearts is bringing
As far over mountain, plain and hill
The bells are with gladness ringing.
6 God’s angels with joy to men descend
Where hymns to God's praise are chanted;
His comfort and peace the Lord will lend
To all who for peace have panted;
The portals of heaven open stand;
The kingdom to us is granted. Topics: Christmas Languages: English Tune Title: [Be welcome again, God's angels bright]

Be Welcome Again, God's Angels Bright
Be welcome again, God's angels bright
Author: Nikolai Frederik Severin Grundtvig, 1783-1872; J. C. Aaberg Hymnal: Hymns and Hymnwriters of Denmark #68 (1945) Meter: 9.8.9.8.9.8 Lyrics:
Be welcome again, God’s angels bright
From mansions of light and glory
To publish anew this wintry night
The wonderful Christmas story.
Ye herald to all that yearn for light
New year after winter hoary.
With gladness we hear your sweet refrain
In praise of God’s glory solely;
Ye will not this wintry night disdain
To enter our dwellings lowly.
And bring to each yearning heart again
The joy that is pure and holy.
In humble homes as in mansions rare
With light in the windows glowing,
We harbor the babes as sweet and fair
As flowers in meadows growing.
Oh, deign with these little ones to share
The joy from your message flowing.
Reveal the child in the manger still
With angels around Him singing
The song of God’s glory, peace, good-will
That joy to all hearts is bringing,
While far over mountain, field and hill,
The bells are with gladness ringing.
God’s angels with joy to earth descend
When hymns to His praise are chanted;
His comfort and peace our Lord will lend
To all who for peace have panted;
The portals of heaven open stand;
The Kingdom to us is granted.
