The Son Of God Came Down In Love Lyrics
1. The Son of God came down in love
From heav'n above:
To leave the Father 'twas his mind,
And from a giant,
Strong and defiant,
To save mankind.
Up therefore, Christian men, and hie
To yonder manger,
In cold and danger
Where Christ doth lie.
The Word made flesh doth condescend
Man to befriend:
Those infant lips, how full of grace!
Yet hear him crying,
On bed-straw lying,
In doleful case.

Up therefore, Christian men, and hie
To yonder manger,
In cold and danger
Where Christ doth lie.
The Word made flesh doth condescend
Man to befriend:
Those infant lips, how full of grace!
Yet hear him crying,
On bed-straw lying,
In doleful case.

2. Hail Mary! God of thee is born,
Thou Star of Morn,
That doth full daylight usher in:
Help, blissful Maiden,
Souls heavy-laden
Pardon to win.

Up therefore, Christian men, and hie
To yonder manger,
In cold and danger
Where Christ doth lie.
The Word made flesh doth condescend
Man to befriend:
Those infant lips, how full of grace!
Yet hear him crying,
On bed-straw lying,
In doleful case.

3. Ne'er let that Angel-descant cease
To herald peace
At Jesus Christ's Nativity:
Grace, my soul, cherish;
So vice shall perish,
And well is thee.

Up therefore, Christian men, and hie
To yonder manger,
In cold and danger
Where Christ doth lie.
The Word made flesh doth condescend
Man to befriend:
Those infant lips, how full of grace!
Yet hear him crying,
On bed-straw lying,
In doleful case.
