Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 672 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

A great and mighty wonder, A full and blessed cure! The Rose has come to blossom Which shall for aye endure. Repeat the hymn again! "To God on high be glory, And peace on earth to men."

Verse 2

The Word has dwelt among us, The true light from on high; And cherubim sing anthems To shepherds from the sky. Repeat the hymn again! "To God on high be glory, And peace on earth to men."

Verse 3

Since all He comes to succor, By all be He adored, The infant born in Bethlehem, The Saviour and the Lord; Repeat the hymn again! "To God on high be glory, And peace on earth to men."
