1 Hail, bless­ed morn!
When Christ was born
A babe in Beth­le­hem!
When at His birth
Peace came to earth,
Good will to sons of men!

Refrain:
All hail the morn,
When Christ was born!
Let earth adore her king!
Join in the song
Of an­gel throng,
And hal­le­lu­jahs sing!

2 Lo! from afar
Still shines the star,
By faith we see the gem!
That went be­fore
Wise men of yore,
And shone o’er Beth­le­hem! [Refrain]

3 No room, they said,
So He was laid
In man­ger rude and bare;
Low lies His head
In humble bed;
The shep­herds found Him there. [Refrain]

4 Wise men of old
Brought gifts of gold,
Of frank­in­cense and myrrh;
But far above
All gifts of love,
The heart doth God pre­fer. [Refrain]
