Hymns Supplied Through the Gracious Generosity
of the Cyber Hymnal Website
Words: Sebastien Besnault, 1736 (Debilis cessent elementa legis); translated from Latin to English in Hymns Ancient and Modern, 1861.
Music: "St. Michael," melody by Louis Bourgeois in the Genevan Psalter, 1551; adapted by William Crotch, 1836
The ancient law departs,
And all its terrors cease;
For Jesus makes with faithful hearts
A covenant of peace.
The Light of Light divine,
True brightness undefiled,
He bears for us the shame of sin,
A holy, spotless Child.
Today the Name is Thine,
At which we bend the knee;
They call Thee Jesus, Child divine!
Our Jesus deign to be.
