How Vain the Cruel Herod’s Fear (EN 4491)

EN 4491 How Vain the Cruel Herod’s Fear

John.18.36

Versi Version 1

1

How vain the cruel Herod’s fear,

When told that Christ the King is near!

He takes not earthly realms away,

Who gives the realms that ne’er decay.

2

The Eastern sages saw from far

And followed on His guiding star;

By light their way to Light they trod,

And by their gifts confessed their God.

3

Within the Jordan’s sacred flood

The heavenly Lamb in meekness stood,

That He to Whom no sin was known,

Might cleanse His people from their own.

4

And oh, what miracle divine,

When water reddened into wine!

He spake the word, and forth it flowed

In streams that nature ne’er bestowed.

5

All glory, Jesu, be to Thee

For this Thy glad Epiphany:

Whom with the Father we adore

And Holy Ghost forevermore.
