Lo! he comes, an infant stranger,
Of a lowly mother born,
Swathed and cradled in a manger,
Of his pristine glory shorn!
Alleluja! Alleluja! Alleluja!
Praise ye God’s incarnate Word!

Lo! He comes, by man unfriended,
Fain with stable beasts to rest;
Shepherds, who their nightfold tended,
Hailed alone the newborn guest.
Alleluja! Alleluja! Alleluja!
Praise ye Jesse's tender shoot!

Son of the Eternal Father,
Who again in power shall come;
Cherub, seraph hosts adorning,
Swell his state, and loudly cry
Alleluja! Alleluja! Alleluja!
Praise ye Him, the living Lord!
