Angels, from the Realms of Glory

Lyrics ~ James Montgomery, 1771-1854

Music ~ Henry Smart, 1813-1879

Stanza 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:

Chorus:

Come and worship, come and worship,

Worship Christ, the newborn king.

Stanza 2:

Shepherds, in the field abiding,

Watching o'er your flocks by night,

God with us is now residing;

Yonder shines the infant light:

(Chorus)

Stanza 3:

Sages, leave your contemplations,

Brighter visions beam afar;

Seek the great Desire of nations;

Ye have seen His natal star:

(Chorus)

Stanza 4:

Saints, before the altar bending,

Watching long in hope and fear;

Suddenly the Lord, descending,

In His temple shall appear:

(Chorus)
