Ye wondering nations, now give ear
Unto the angel’s cry,
For lo, from heavens he has appeared
To bring salvation nigh,
Has brought the ancient records forth,
Unloosed the mighty seal;
God’s glory soon shall fill the earth,
And wondrous things reveal.

The things of worth in ages gone
His word doth clear unfold;
And things to come, no rolling on,
The wise may here behold.
The meek and humble shall rejoice,
The wise shall understand;
All Israel now shall know his voice,
And gather to his land.
