See Amid The Winters Snow

see amid the winter's snow,
born for us on earth below,
see the tender lamb appears,
promised from eternal years.

chorus
hail, thou ever-blessed morn!
hail, redemption's happy dawn!
sing through all jerusalem,
christ is born in bethlehem.

lo, within a manger lies
he who built the starry skies;
he who throned in height sublime
sits amid the cherubim. chorus

say, ye holy shepherds, say
what your joyful news today;
wherefore have ye left your sheep
on the lonely mountain steep? chorus

"as we watched at dead of night,
lo, we saw a wondrous light; [1]
angels singing peace on earth
told us of the saviour's birth". chorus

sacred infant, all divine,
what a tender love was thine,
thus to come from highest bliss
down to such a world as this. chorus

teach, o teach us , holy child,
by thy face so meek and mild,
teach us to resemble thee,
in thy sweet humility! chorus
