"Saviour of the Nations, Come"

Saviour of the nations, come,

Virgin's Son, make here Thy home!

Marvel now, O heav'n and earth,

That the Lord chose such a birth.

~

Not of flesh and blood the Son,

Offspring of the Holy One;

Born of Mary ever blest

God in flesh is manifest.

~

Wondrous birth! O wondrous Child

Of the virgin undefiled!

Though by all the world disowned,

Still to be in heav'n enthroned.

~Ambrose of Milan
