Ancient law departs Christmas Hymn & Carol LyricsThe ancient law departs, And all its terrors cease; For Jesus makes with faithful hearts A covenant of peace.
The Light of Light divine, True brightness undefiled, He bears for us the shame of sin, A holy, spotless Child.
His infant body now Begins our pains to feel; Those precious drops of blood that flow For death the victim seal.
Today the Name is Thine, At which we bend the knee; They call Thee Jesus, Child divine! Our Jesus deign to be. |
