HYMN VIII.
[Away with our fears!]
Away with our fears!
The Godhead appears
In Christ reconciled,
The Father of Mercies in Jesus the Child.
The Godhead appears
In Christ reconciled,
The Father of Mercies in Jesus the Child.
He comes from above,
In manifest love,
The Desire of our eyes,
The meek Lamb of God in a manger He lies.
In manifest love,
The Desire of our eyes,
The meek Lamb of God in a manger He lies.
At Immanuel's birth
What a triumph on earth!
Yet could it afford
No better a place for its heavenly Lord!
What a triumph on earth!
Yet could it afford
No better a place for its heavenly Lord!

The Ancient of Days
To redeem a lost race,
From His glory comes down,
Self-humbled to carry us up to a crown.
To redeem a lost race,
From His glory comes down,
Self-humbled to carry us up to a crown.
Made flesh for our sake,
That we might partake
The nature Divine,
And again in His image, His holiness shine;
That we might partake
The nature Divine,
And again in His image, His holiness shine;
An heavenly birth
Experience on earth,
And rise on His throne,
And live with our Jesus eternally one.
Experience on earth,
And rise on His throne,
And live with our Jesus eternally one.
Then let us believe,
And gladly receive
The tidings they bring,
Who publish to sinners their Saviour and King.
And gladly receive
The tidings they bring,
Who publish to sinners their Saviour and King.
And while we are here
Our King shall appear,
His Spirit impart,
And form His full image of love in our heart.
Our King shall appear,
His Spirit impart,
And form His full image of love in our heart.
