LYRICS:
Let all mortal flesh keep silence
And with fear and trembling stand
Ponder nothing earthly-minded
For, with blessing in His hand
Christ our God to earth descendeth
Our full homage to demand

King of kings, yet born of Mary
As of old on earth He stood
Lord of lords, in human vesture
In the body and the blood
He will give to all the faithful
His own self for heav'nly food

Rank on rank the host of heaven
Spreads its vanguard on the way
As the Light of light descendeth
From the realms of endless day
That the pow'rs of hell may vanish
As the darkness clears away

At His feet the six-winged seraph
Cherubim with sleepless eye
Veil their faces to the Presence
As with ceaseless voice they cry
“Alleluia, alleluia
Alleluia, Lord Most High!
Alleluia, Lord Most High!”

Words: From the Liturgy of St. James (5th Century), tr. Gerard Moultrie (1864); Music: Traditional French Carol, Public Domain

Mystical. Mystery of the Presence. Holy. Beyond words, put into words...

Not more than 40 min ago, I listened to Keith speaking about this song in the Trinity Forum. I had never heard it, so I came to YouTube to look it up. Now I’m scrambling to learn it on guitar so I can play it tomorrow night for a women’s Christmas worship service we are having. Praise God for music, for song writers who minister His truth with Melodie’s that soften hearts and prepares Him room.

Oh I love this❤. Thank you for this beautiful word honoring and praising our Lord😊.

[MartyMcIntyre]

We sang this in our Episcopal church during the first week of Advent. It took my breath away. I had to search to find this rendition, which is my absolute favorite. It is an articulate anchor of truth in this daily walk.

[GodsgalMN]

This ancient hymn holds a sort of mystery in the lyrics of the Advent season. Along with an unresolved melody that leaves our ears waiting - - - - for what is coming. The new born King 👑 🕊️ Jesus Messiah! 🙌🏼 (your 2 voices are like 2 sisters, beautiful!) 💖Ty. 🙏🏼 God bless you this Christmas🎄& always!
