Unto Him Be Glory

Author: Emma Pitt Appears in 6 hymnals First Line: O’er Bethlehem’s bright and sunny plain Lyrics: 1 O’er Bethlehem’s bright and sunny plain, There comes a holy calm, In solemn tones there Sharon waves Her beauteous trees of palm. Refrain: Let hills, let hills and vales their voice unite, And greet, and greet with us in lofty praise, And greet with us in lofty praise, The Day-Spring from on high; Be glory, honor unto Him Who on this day was born. 2 Be glory, honor unto Him, Who on this day was born, With heart and voice join in the strain, This holy, sacred morn. [Refrain] 3 All nations catch the glory theme, And our Messiah praise, Let every tongue His honor speak, And sing in joyful lays. [Refrain] 4 Far on the listening ear of night, Comes sweet and sacred song, The angels from their lofty height, The mighty strain prolong. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [O’er Bethlehem’s bright and sunny plain]
