  1. An-gels, from the realms of glo-ry,
    Wing your flight o'er all the earth;
    Ye who sang cre-a-tion's sto-ry,
    Now pro-claim Mes-si-ah's birth :
    Refrain
    Come and wor-ship,
    Come and wor-ship
    Wor-ship Christ, the new born King.
  2. Shep-herds, in the fields a-bid-ing.
    Watch-ing o'er your flocks by night,
    God with man is now re-sid-ing,
    Yon-der shines the in-fant light;
    Refrain
  3. Sa-ges, leave your con-tem-pla-tions,
    Bright-er vi-sions beam a - far;
    Seek the great De - sire of na-tions,
    Ye have seen his na-tal star:
  4. Saints be-fore the al-tar bend-ing,
    Watch-ing long in beam a - far;
    Seek the great De-sire of na-tions,
    hope and fear, Sud-den-ly the Lord, de-scend-ing,
    In his tem-ple shall ap-pear:
    Refrain
    A-men
