Christ the Lord to us is born

Christ the Lord to us is born,
Hallelujah!
On this joyous Christmas morn,
Hallelujah!

Born this day to save us.

Hallelujah!
God has sent Him as foretold,
Hallelujah!

3. Our poor human form He took,
Hallelujah!
Realms of heaven He forsook,
Hallelujah!
Refrain:

4. Prostrate lies the Evil One,
Hallelujah!
God has saved us through his Son,
Hallelujah!
Refrain:

5. Grace divine, be with us still,
Hallelujah!
Keep us from all harm and ill,
Hallelujah!
Refrain:

6. Grant us, Lord, a blessed end,
Hallelujah!
To our souls Thy comfort send,
Hallelujah!
