God With Us

Softly beaming, brightly gleaming,

See yon lovely star;

Glad good news it brings to men,

For in little Bethlehem,

In a manger lies a Stranger,

Christ the Lord and King,

Come to earth salvation unto all to bring.

Refrain

Guiding star, O shine upon our path today,

As of old, still lead us with thy beauteous ray;

By thy light reveal to us the King of love,

Till at last we sing His praise above.

Angels singing, earthward winging,

From the realms of light;

Hover over Judah's plain,

Lifting high a joyous strain,

Wondrous story, peace and glory,

Is their matchless theme,

For the wondrous Infant shall from sin redeem.

Refrain

Waiting sages, through the ages,

Of His coming told;

God with us-Emmanuel,

Now with sinful man doth dwell;

High and holy, meek and lowly,

God and man is He,

Born today with pow'r divine our souls to free.

Refrain
