Lyics

Who has our report believed?

Shiloh come is not received,

Not received by his own;

Promised branch from root of Jesse,

David's offspring sent to bless you,

Comes too lowly to be known.



Tell me, O you favored nation,

What is your fond expectation,

Some fair spreading lofty tree?

Let not worldly pride confound you;

'Mong the lowly plants around you

Mark the lowest, that is he.



Glory be to God who gave us,

Freely gave, his Son to save us!

Glory to the Son who came!

Honor, blessing, adoration, 

Ever from the whole creation,

Be to God and to the Lamb.
