Author: Rev. James Montgomery Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #348 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Angels, from the realms of glory,
Wing your flight o'er all the earth;
Ye who sang creation's story,
Now proclaim Messiah's birth.
Come and worship, Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
2 Shepherds, in the fields abiding,
Watching o'er your flocks by night,
God with man is now residing,
Yonder shines the infant Light.
Come and worship, Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
3 Sages, leave your contemplations,
Brighter visions beam afar;
Seek the great Desire of nations;
Ye have seen His natal star.
Come and worship, Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
4 Saints, in humble prayer now bending,
Watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
In His temple shall appear.
Come and worship, Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
5 Saints and angels join in praising
Thee, the Father, Spirit, Son,
Evermore their voices raising
To th'Eternal Three in One.
Come and worship, Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
