A Great and Mighty Wonder
Words: St. Germanus
Music: German Carol Melody
A great and migh­ty won­der,
A full and ho­ly cure!
The vir­gin bears the In­fant
With vir­gin hon­or pure!
REFRAIN:
Repeat the hymn again:
To God on high be glo­ry
And peace on earth to men!
The Word be­comes in­car­nate
And yet re­mains on high,
And che­ru­bim sing an­thems
To shep­herds from the sky.
While thus they sing your mon­arch,
Those bright an­gel­c bands,
Rejoice, ye vales and moun­tains!
Ye oceans, clap your hands!
Since all He comes to ran­som,
By all be He adored,
The In­fant born in Beth­l’em,
The Sav­ior and the Lord!
