157. See Amid the Winter's Snow

See amid the winter´s snow,

Born for us on earth below,

see the thender Lamb appears,

promised from eternal years.

There within a manger lies

He who built the starry skies,

he, who throned in heights sublime,

sits amid the cherubim.

Hail that ever blessed morn!

Hail redemption´s happy dawn!

Sing through all Jerusalem

Christ is born in Bethlehem.

Say, you holy shepherds, say,

Tell your joyful news today,

Why have you now left your sheep

On the lonely mountain steep?

Hail that ever blessed morn!

Hail redemption´s happy dawn!

Sing through all Jerusalem,

Christ is born in Bethlehem.

As we watched at dead of night

There apperead a wondrous light

Angels singing peace on earth,

Told us of the Savior´s birth

Hail that ever blessed morn!

Hail redemption´s happy dawn!

Christ is born in Bethlehem
