Text marked as lyrics
1.Of the Father's love begotten ere the worlds began to be, he is Alpha and Omega he the source, theend ing he, of the things that are, that have been, and that future years shall see evermore and evermore. Amen. 2.O that birth forever blessed, when a virgin, blest with grace, by the Holy Ghost conceiving, bore the Savior of our race; and the babe, the world's Redeemer, first revealed his sacred face, evermore and evermore. 3.This is he whom seers in old time chanted of with one accord, whom the voices of the prophets promised in their faithful word; now he shines, the longexpected; let creation praise its Lord evermore and evermore. 4.O the heights of heaven adore him; angel hosts, his praises sing: powers, dominions, bow before him and extol our God and King; let no tongue on earth be silent, every voice in concert ring evermore and evermore. 5.Christ, to you, with God the Father and the Spirit, there shall be hymn and chant and high thanksgiving and the shout of jubilee: honor, glory, and dominion and eternal victory evermore and evermore!
