Lyrics

Angels from the realms of glory,
wing your flight o'er all the earth.
As you sang creation's story,
now proclaim Messiah's birth;

  come and worship, come and worship,
  worship Christ the newborn King.

Shepherds, in the field abiding,
watching o'er your flocks by night,
God with us is now residing,
yonder shines the infant light;

  come and worship, come and worship,
  worship Christ the newborn King.

Sages, leave your contemplations–
brighter visions beam afar.
Seek the great desire of nations,
guided by his natal star;

  come and worship, come and worship,
  worship Christ the newborn King.

Saints, before the altar bending,
watching long in hope and fear,
shall behold God's love unending:
Christ will once again appear;

  come and worship, come and worship,
  worship Christ the newborn King.
