Lutheran Hymnal: 019 - Come, Thou Saviour of our Race

1 Come, Thou Saviour of our race, Choicest gift of heavenly grace; O Thou blessed virgin’s Son, Born Thy course for us to run. 2 Not of mortal blood and birth, He descended to the earth: By the Holy Ghost conceived, Truly man, to be believed. 3 Wondrous birth! O wondrous child Of the virgin undefiled! Though by all the world disowned, Still to be in heaven enthroned. 4 From the Father forth He came, And returneth to the same, Captive leading death and hell— High the song of triumph swell. 5 Thou, the Father’s only Son, Hast o’er sin the victory won. Boundless shall Thy kingdom be; When shall we its glories see? 6 Brightly doth Thy manger shine, Glorious is its light divine; Let not sin o’ercloud this light, Ever be our faith thus bright. 7 Praise to God the Father sing, Praise to God the Son, our King, Praise to God the Spirit be Ever and eternally.
