Savior of the Nations, Come Lyrics

Savior of the nations, come

Virgin's son, make here your home

Marvel now, O heav'n and earth

God has chosen such a birth

Not by human flesh and blood

But the mystic Breath of God

Was the Word of God made flesh

Fruit of woman, blossom fresh

Wondrous birth- oh, wondrous child

From his throne, a virgin mild

Very God, and Mary's son

Eager now his race to run

From God's heart the Savior speeds

Back to God his pathway leads

Out to vanquish death's command

Back to reign at God's right hand

Now your manger, shining bright

Hallows night with newborn light

Night cannot this light subdue

Let our faith shine ever new

Praise we sing to Christ the Lord

Virgin's son, incarnate Word

To the holy Trinity

Praise we sing eternally
