ADORATION

The carol of the angels is heard no more today,

The chorus of the heavenly hosts long since has died away,

Their anthem swells no longer, their hallelujah-hymn

No more shall rend the midnight skies o’er sleeping Bethlehem!

 

Long years have passed since Judah resounded to the song

Poured forth upon the silent night  By the angelic throng;

And yet the joyous anthem   That flooded Judah’s air

Is swelling in this heart of mine, and rings and echoes there!

 

They sang the Saviour’s praises,  And glorious was the song

Poured by countless heavenly hosts,  Who knew no sin nor wrong:

But e’en that holy anthem   With my song cannot vie,

For never angels knew such joy in Jesus Christ as I!

 

A carol such as angels   Can never learn to sing,

A carol ever glorious, A carol to my King,

To Him whose love redeemed me,  The Christ of Calvary,

Shall ring with this heart of mine   Throughout eternity!
