Now let all the heavens adore <strong>The</strong>e,<br />

And men <strong>and</strong> angels sing before <strong>The</strong>e,<br />

With harp <strong>and</strong> cymbal's clearest tone;<br />

Of one pearl each shining portal,<br />

Where we are with the choir immortal<br />

Of angels round Thy dazzling throne;<br />

Nor eye hath seen, nor ear<br />

Hath yet attain'd to hear<br />

What there is ours,<br />

But we rejoice, <strong>and</strong> sing to <strong>The</strong>e<br />

Our hymn <strong>of</strong> joy eternally.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Christmas</strong> Poems <strong>of</strong> Catherine Winkworth<br />

Note: Winkworth does not include this in her "Advent" section, but under the heading <strong>of</strong> "<strong>The</strong> Life To<br />

Come." See: Wake, Awake, For <strong>Night</strong> Is Flying<br />
