[Rejoice in Jesu's birth!]

Unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given, &c. —ix. 6.

Rejoice in Jesu's birth!
To us a Son is given,
To us a Child is born on earth,
Who made both earth and heaven!

His shoulder props the sky,
This universe sustains!
The God supreme, the Lord most high,
The King Messiah reigns!
His name, His nature, soars
Beyond the creatures' ken:
Yet whom the' angelic host adores,
He pleads the cause of men!
Our Counsellor we praise,
Our Advocate above,
Who daily in His church displays
His miracles of love.
