The world in condemnation lay,
And death, from Adam reigning,
O�er man maintained remorseless sway,
While sin his soul enchaining
Foredoomed the second death to all
That shared the ruins of the fall;
But Christ�s triumphant mission
Redeemed us from perdition.
Then round his manger let us throng,
Attend him in temptation,
Carry our cross with joy along
His path of tribulation;
With him to Olivet retire,
On Calvary at his feet expire;
Then, on Mount Zion seated,
Our bliss shall be completed.
