EN 3554 From East to West, from Shore to Shore

Luke.1.38

Versi Version 1

1

From east to west, from shore to shore,

Let every heart awake and sing

The holy Child Whom Mary bore,

The Christ, the everlasting King.

2

Behold, the world’s Creator wears

The form and fashion of a slave;

Our very flesh our Maker shares,

His fallen creature, man, to save.

3

For this how wondrously He wrought!

A maiden, in her lowly place,

Became, in ways beyond all thought,

The chosen vessel of His grace.

4

She bowed her to the angel’s word

Declaring what the Father willed,

And suddenly the promised Lord

That pure and hallowed temple filled.

5

He shrank not from the oxen’s stall,

He lay within the manger bed,

And He whose bounty feedeth all

At Mary’s breast Himself was fed.

6

And while the angels in the sky

Sang praise above the silent field,

To shepherds poor the Lord Most High,

The one great Shepherd, was revealed.

7

All glory for this blessed morn

To God the Father ever be;

All praise to Thee, O virgin born,

All praise, O Holy Ghost, to Thee.
