Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2390 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. He has come, the Christ of God:
Left for us His glad abode;
Stooping from His throne of bliss
To this darksome wilderness.
2. He has come, the Prince of Peace:
Come to bid our sorrows cease;
Come to scatter with His light
All the shadows of our night.
3. He, the mighty King, has come,
Making this poor earth His home:
Come to bear our sin’s sad load,
Son of David, Son of God.
4. He has come, whose name of grace
Speaks deliverance to our race:
Left for us His glad abode,
Son of Mary, Son of God.
5. Unto us a child is born:
Ne’er has earth beheld a morn
Among all the morns of time,
Half so glorious in its prime.
6. Unto us a son is given:
He has come from God’s own Heaven,
Bringing with Him from above
Holy peace and holy love. Languages: English Tune Title: GLAD DAY
He Has Come, the Christ of God
