W:Peace o'er the world, her olive branch extends,
W:And white-robed innocence from heaven decends,
W:Swift fly the years and rise th' expected morn;
W:O, spring to light! O spring to light! Th' auspicious Babe be born!

W:Hark! a glad voice, the lonely desert cheers,
W:Prepare the way, a God, a God appears;
W:A God, a God, the vocal hills reply;
W:The rocks proclaim, the rocks proclaim th' approaching Deity.

W:The Saviour comes, by ancient seers foretold;
W:Hear Him, ye deaf, and all ye blind behold!
W:He, from thick films, shall purge the visual ray
W:And on the sightless eyeball pour the day.
