Traditional - Oh! Look at the sky! - текст песни (слова)

Oh! look at the sky!
 The East becomes lighter,
 Still brighter and brighter,
 Behold, to the earth
 a star draweth nigh!
 The night melts away!
 The mountains are beaming,
 Dark valleys are gleaming
 With light from on high!
 What singing doth fill
 The crystaline skies?
 From heaven it flies
 O'er hollow and hill;
 And who are the singers?
 God's angels are bringers
 Of Peace and Good will!
 
 Chorus:
 From heaven above
 Come Mercy and Love
 To those who repine;
 One gentle and lowly,
 One helpless and holy,
 The Child King divine.
 
 Behold the bright star!
 Lo! wise men, before him,
 And shepherds adore him,
 Rich offerings and gifts
 they bring from afar;
 His palace is bare,
 He lies in the manger,
 There is but the stranger
 To watch him with care;
 Yet through it is bare,
 The lay and the light
 Float in through the night,
 And make it so fair;
 And children come creeping,
 And mothers are weeping
 With tender delight.
 Chorus
