EN 4099 Savior of the Heathen, Known
John.1.14
Versi Version 1
1
Savior of the heathen, known
As the promised virgin’s Son;
Come Thou Wonder of the earth,
God ordained Thee such a birth.
2
Not of flesh and blood the son,
Offspring of the Holy One,
Born of Mary ever blest,
God in flesh is manifest.
3
Cherished is the Holy Child
By the mother undefiled;
In the virgin, full of grace,
God has made His dwelling place.
4
Lo! He comes! the Lord of all
Leaves His bright and royal hall;
God and man, with giant force,
Hastening to run His course.
5
To the Father whence He came
He returns with brighter fame;
Down to hell He goes alone,
Then ascends to God’s high throne.
6
Thou, the Father’s equal, win
Victory in the flesh o’er sin;
So shall man, though weak and frail;
By the indwelling God prevail.
7
On Thy lowly manger night
Sheds a pure unwonted light;
Darkness must not enter here,
Faith abides in sunshine clear.
8
Praise be to the Father done,
Praise be to the only Son,
Praises to the Spirit be,
Now and to eternity.
