EN 3764 In Stature Grows the Heavenly Child
Luke.2.52
Versi Version 1
1
In stature grows the heavenly Child,
With death before His eyes;
A Lamb unblemished, meek and mild,
Prepared for sacrifice.
2
The Son of God His glory hides
With parents mean and poor;
And He Who made the heaven abides
In dwelling place obscure.
3
Those mighty hands that stay the sky
No earthly toil refuse;
And He Who set the stars on high
An humble trade pursues.
4
He before Whom the angels stand,
At Whose behest they fly,
Now yields himself to man’s command,
And lay His glory by.
5
Jesu, the virgin’s holy Son,
We praise Thee and adore,
Who art with god the Father One,
And Spirit evermore.
