4."The heavenly babe you there shall find
To human view displayed
And meanly wrapped in swathing bands
And in a manger laid."
5. Thus spake the seraph, and forthwith
Appeared a shining throng
Of angels praising God, who thus
Addressed their joyful song:
6. "All glory be to God on high
And to the earth be peace;
Goodwill henceforth from heaven to men
Begin and never cease!"
