I. The Prophecy (Chorus) O Wisdom, which camest out of the mouth of the most high; O Adonai, and leader of the house of Israel; O root of Jesse; O Key of David and Scepter of the house of Israel; O Day-spring, Brightness of Light Everlasting. O King of Nations, and their Desire; O Emmanuel, our King and Lawgiver, the Desire of all nations, and their Salvation: Come and save us. (Soprano solo) O Virgin of Virgins, how shall this be? Daughters of Jerusalem, why marvel ye at me? The thing which ye behold is a divine mystery. II. The Annunciation (Baritone Solo) Hail, O Star that pointest Towards the port of heaven, Thou to whom as maiden God the Son was given. When the salutation Gabriel had spoken, Peace was shed upon us, Eden's bonds were broken. Jesus' tender Mother, Make thy supplication Unto Him who chose thee As His incarnation. So, as now we journey, Aid our weak endeavour, Till we gaze on Jesus, And rejoice forever. (Chorus women) My soul doth magnify the Lord: and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior; For he that regarded the lowliness of his handmaiden; For behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. III. The Manger (Baritone solo) Therefore, when at length the fullness Of the appointed time was come, He was sent, the world's Creator, From the Father's heavenly home, And was found in human fashion, Offspring of the Virgin's womb. (Soprano solo and chorus) Lo, He lies, an infant weeping Where the nrrow manger stands, While the Mother-maid, His members Wraps in mean and lowly bands, And the swaddling clothes is winding Round His helpless Feet and Hands. IV. The Shepherds (Chorus sopranos) Whome saw ye, Shepherds? Say ye and tell us the tidings of the birth of Christ. He that hath appeared upon earth. (Chorus men)&lt
