歌词
Bright and joyful is the morn,For to us a Child is born;
From the highest realms of heaven
Unto us a Son is given.
On His shoulder He shall bear
Power and majesty, and wear,
On His vesture and His thigh,
Names most awful, names most high.
Wonderful in counsel He,
The incarnate Deity,
Sire of ages ne'er to cease,
King of kings and Prince of Peace.
Come and worship at His feet,
Yield to Christ the homage meet;
From His manger to His throne,
Homage due to God alone.
光明欢乐这清晨,有一圣婴孩降生;
至高真神独生子,为救世人舍高天。
政权必担在他肩,国度显赫且无边,
至尊威荣作外衣,万民敬畏他名字。
道成肉身神羔羊,奇妙策士智无双,
永在之父全能神,万主之主和平君。
快乐俯伏他跟前,谦卑敬献颂主篇;
昔日圣婴今作王,国度权柄倾万邦。
