Brought from His royal home above;
Brought to thee in the far-off land
Brought to thee by His own dear
hand,
Promises held by Christ for thee,
Peace as a river flowing free,
Joy that in His own Joy must live,
And love that Infinite Love can give
Surely thy heart of hearts uplifts
Carols of praise for Such Christmas
gifts!"
