From the lips of angels spoken
1
From the lips of angels spoken,Fell the song with falling dews;Was there ever silence brokenBy such joyous welcome news?
Chorus.
Hallelujah! hallelujah!Hallelujah! Christ is born.
2
Startled shepherds, all awaking,Hear the song the angels sing,And their frightened flocks forsaking,Go to seek the Saviour-king.
3
Son of God, in manger lowly,Prince of light and Lord of love;King of heaven, high and holy,Boon on earth from courts above!
4
We exalt thee, we adore thee,We rejoice, and praise thy name;Every knee shall bend before thee,Every tongue thy love proclaim.
