To us a Child is born this night,
Behold His glorious light;
To us a Son is given,
Who Himself is our true God,
Our Life here and in heaven.

Now wide is opening heaven’s door,
And out the light doth pour;
A gleam of majesty,
Christ the Son of Righteousness,
Who makes all people free.

The light is Christ, our gracious Lord,
The true Immanuel,
To Christians now revealed;
And with wondrous grace and truth
Shows them what was concealed.
