sto - ry

be tell-ing, The Son of the High - est, how low-ly his birth!

2 Tell how he cometh; from nation to nation,
The heart-cheering news let the earth echo round:
How free to the faithful he offers salvation,
How his people with joy everlasting are crown'd:
Cho.-Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing
Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King!

3 Mortals, your homage be gratefully bringing,
And sweet let the gladsome Hosanna arise;
Ye angels, the full Hallelujah be singing;

One chorus resound through the earth and the skies:
Cho.-Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing;
Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is King!

CAROL, CAROL, CHRISTIANS.
(Bp. Coxe's Carol.)

O. W.

Then Carol, carol, Christians, For Christ-mas' come again.

2 Go ye to the forest,
Where the myrtles grow,
Where the pine and laurel
Bend beneath the snow;
Gather them for Jesus;

Wreathe them for his shrine;
Make his temple glorious
With the box and pine.

13 Wreathe your Christmas garland, 14 Give us grace, O Saviour,

Where, to Christ, we pray;

It shall smell like Carmel
On our festal day.
Libanus and Sharon

Shall not greener be
Than our holy chancel,
On Christ's Nativity.

To put off in might,

Deeds and dreams of darkness,

For the robes of light!

And to lie as lowly

As thyself with men,

So to rise in glory,

When thou com'st again.
