Praise God, ye Christians, all together | |||
In his highest throne, | |||
Who today unlocks his kingdom | |||
And gives us His Son. | |||
He comes from his father's lap | |||
and becomes a small infant, | |||
thus he lies miserable, naked and helpless | |||
in a manger. | |||
He exchanged all his power, | |||
becoming poor and low | |||
and assumes the shape of a servant, | |||
the Creator of all things. | |||
Today he again unlocks the door | |||
to the beautiful paradise. | |||
The cherub no longer bars the way. | |||
To God be praise, honor and glory.}} | |||
