Lyrics Traditional / Arr. Willcocks: "Of the father's heart begotten" - Traditional feat. Choir of King's College, Cambridge & David Willcocks
Of
the
Father's
heart
begotten
Ere
the
world
from
chaos
rose
He
is
Alpha
from
that
fountain
All
that
is
and
hath
been
flows
He
is
Omega
of
all
things
Yet
to
come
the
mystic
close
Evermore
and
evermore
By
His
word
was
all
created
He
commanded
and
'twas
done
Earth
and
sky
and
boundless
ocean
Universe
of
three
in
one
All
that
sees
the
moon's
soft
radiance
All
that
breathes
beneath
the
sun
Evermore
and
evermore
He
assumed
this
mortal
body
Frail
and
feeble,
doomed
to
die
That
the
race
from
dust
created
Might
not
perish
utterly
Which
the
dreadful
law
had
sentenced
In
the
depths
of
hell
to
lie
Evermore
and
evermore
O
how
blest
that
wondrous
birthday
When
the
maid
the
curse
retrieved
Brought
to
birth
mankind's
salvation
By
the
Holy
Ghost
conceived
And
the
Babe,
the
world's
redeemer
In
her
loving
arms
received
Evermore
and
evermore
This
is
He,
whom
seer
and
sybil
Sang
in
ages
long
gone
by
This
is
He
of
old
revealed
In
the
page
of
prophecy
Lo,
He
comes,
the
promised
saviour
Let
the
world
His
praises
cry
Evermore
and
evermore
Sing,
ye
heights
of
Heaven,
His
praises
Angels
and
archangels
sing
Wheresoe'er
ye
be,
ye
faithful
Let
your
joyous
anthems
ring
Every
tongue
His
name
confessing
Countless
voices
answering
Evermore
and
evermore
