FOR UNTO US A CHILD IS GIVEN

​

Unto us a Child is given,

Christ our Savior bring release;

Counselor, Eternal Father,

God made man, and Prince of Peace.

FOR UNTO US A CHILD IS GIVEN

​

Born of Mary, gentle virgin,

By the Spirit of the Lord;

From eternal ages spoken:

This the mighty Father's Word.

​

Love and truth in him shall flower,

From his strength their vigour take.

Branches that are bare shall blossom;

Joy that slept begins to wake.

​

Praise the everlasting Father,

and the Lord, his only Son;

Praise them with the Holy Spirit,

Perfect Trinity in One.
