With Wondering Awe

Lyrics

1. 1. With wond’ring awe the wisemen saw

   The star in heaven springing,

   And with delight, in peaceful night,

   They heard the angels singing:

2. [Chorus]

   Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna to his name!

3. 2. By light of star they traveled far

   To seek the lowly manger,

   A humble bed wherein was laid

   The wondrous little Stranger.

4. 3. And still is found, the world around,

   The old and hallowed story,

   And still is sung in ev’ry tongue

   The angels’ song of glory:

5. 4. The heav’nly star its rays afar

   On ev’ry land is throwing,

   And shall not cease till holy peace

   In all the earth is growing.
