- 1.
- All this night bright angels sing;
- Never was such carolling.
- Hark, a voice which loudly cries:
- "Mortals, mortals wake and rise;"
- Lo! to gladness Turns your sadness;
- From the earth is risen a Sun;
- Shines all night, though day be done.
- 2.
- "Wake, O earth, wake everything!
- Wake and hear the joy I bring;
- Wake and joy for all this night,
- Heaven and every twinkling light,
- All amazing, Still stand gazing;
- Angels, powers, and all that be,
- Wake, and joy this Sun to see!"
- 3.
- Hail, O Sun! O blessed Light,
- Sent into this world by night;
- Let Thy rays and heavenly powers
- Shine in these dark souls of ours;
- For most duly, Thou art truly
- God and Man, we do confess;
- Hail, O Sun of Righteousness!
- Lyrics by William Austin
