Methinks I See an Heav'nly Host - Taverner Choir[00:00:00]
Methinks I see a heavenly host[00:00:02]
Of angels on the wing[00:00:05]
Methinks I hear their chearful notes[00:00:08]
So merrily they sing[00:00:11]
So merrily they sing[00:00:13]
'Let all your fears be banish'd hence[00:00:18]
Glad tidings I proclaim[00:00:21]
For there's a saviour born to day[00:00:24]
And jesus is his name[00:00:27]
And jesus is his name[00:00:30]
Lay down your crooks and quit your flocks[00:00:34]
To bethlehem repair[00:00:37]
And let your wand'ring steps be squared[00:00:40]
By yonder shining star[00:00:43]
By yonder shining star[00:00:46]
Seek not in courts or palaces[00:00:50]
Nor royal curtains draw[00:00:54]
But search the stable see your god[00:00:57]
Extended on the straw[00:01:00]
Extended on the straw[00:01:03]
Then learn from hence ye rural swains[00:01:08]
The meekness of your god[00:01:11]
Who left the boundless realms of joy[00:01:14]
To ransom you with blood[00:01:17]
To ransom you with blood[00:01:20]
The master of the inn refus'd[00:01:24]
A more commodius place[00:01:27]
Ungenerous soul of savage mould[00:01:30]
And destitute of grace[00:01:33]
And destitute of grace[00:01:35]
Exult ye oxen low for joy[00:01:40]
Ye tenants of the stall[00:01:43]
Pay your obeisance on your knees[00:01:46]
Unanimously fall[00:01:49]
Unanimously fall[00:01:52]
The royal fuest you entertain[00:01:56]
Is not of common birth[00:01:58]
But second in the great I am[00:02:02]
The god of heaven and earth'[00:02:05]
The god of heaven and earth'[00:02:07]
Then suddenly a heavenly host[00:02:12]
Around the shepherds throng[00:02:15]
Exulting in the threefold god[00:02:18]
And thus address their song[00:02:21]
And thus address their song[00:02:24]
'To god the father christ the son[00:02:28]
And holy ghost ador'd[00:02:31]
The first and last the last and first[00:02:34]
Eternal praise afford[00:02:37]
Eternal praise afford[00:02:39]
