Author: Charles Kinchin, 1711-1742; Martin Luther, 1483-1546 Hymnal: Hymnal and Liturgies of the Moravian Church #56 (1969) Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, all praise to Thee,
That Thou wast pleased a man to be;
Our low estate Thou didst not scorn;
And angels sang to see Thee born.
2 The heavenly Father’s only Son,
He left His rightful glorious throne;
The Lord through Whom the worlds were made
Is in the humble manger laid.
3 The brightness of the Light divine
Doth now into our darkness shine;
It breaks upon sin’s gloomy night
And makes us children of the light.
4 The Father’s Son, for ever blest,
Becomes in His own world a Guest,
To lead us from this vale of strife
Into the everlasting life. Topics: The Church Year Advent Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM
Lord Jesus Christ, All Praise to Thee
