Glory to God! this ad­vent morn,
My soul ex­ult­ing sings,
Today of old on earth was born
The glo­ri­ous King of kings.
Today of old on earth was born
The glo­ri­ous King of kings.

Let ev­ery idle fol­ly fall,
And ev­ery dis­cord cease;
He reigns in Hea­ven, the Lord of all,
O’er all the Prince of Peace;
He reigns in Hea­ven, the Lord of all,
O’er all the Prince of Peace.

Glory to God! in Christ the Lord
We own His name di­vine;
Earth, Hea­ven, the Spir­it and the Word
Robed in His beau­ty shine;
Earth, Hea­ven, the Spir­it and the Word
Robed in His beau­ty shine.

Where an­gels in their glo­ry bow
They on Mes­si­ah call;
And, in His earth­ly tem­ple, now
We crown Him Lord of all.
And, in His earth­ly tem­ple, now
We crown Him Lord of all.
