Hymn 20

1. A great and mighty wonder
   upon the earth was done
   when Mary, virgin mother,
   gave birth to God’s own Son.
   Repeat the song again:
   “To God on high the glory,
   and peace on earth to men!”
   
   
2. The Word became incarnate –
   made flesh, yet very God.
   The angels hailed his coming
   with songs o’er fields abroad.
   Repeat the song again:
   “To God on high the glory,
   and peace on earth to men!”
   
   
3. Sing praise to God the Father;
   join with the heav’nly bands.
   Rejoice, O vales and mountains,
   and, oceans, clap your hands!
   Repeat the song again:
   “To God on high the glory,
   and peace on earth to men!”
   
   
4. Since he came us to ransom,
   let him now be adored,
   the King once born in Bethle’m,
   our Saviour and our Lord.
   Repeat the song again:
   “To God on high the glory,
   and peace on earth to men!”
