Methodist-Hymns-141
1: TO us a child of royal birth,
Heir of the promises, is given;
The invisible appears on earth,
The Son of Man, the God of heaven.
2: A Saviour born, in love supreme
He comes our fallen souls to raise;
He comes his people to redeem
With all His plentitude of grace.
3: The Christ, by raptured seers foretold,
Filled with the eternal Spirit’s power,
Prophet, and Priest, and King behold,
And Lord of all the worlds adore.
4: The Lord of hosts, the God most high,
who quits His throne on earth to live,
with joy we welcome from the sky,
with faith into our hearts receive.
