With Wondering Awe

Words: Anonymous
From Laudis Corona, Boston, 1885

Music: Anonymous

With wondering awe the wisemen saw
The star in heaven springing
And with delight in peaceful night
They heard the angels singing

Hosana, Hosana,
Hosana to his name

By light of star they traveled far
To seek the lowly manger
A humble bed wherein was laid
The wonderous little Stranger

Hosana, Hosana,
Hosana to his name

And still is found the world around
The old and hallowed story
And still is sung in ev'ry tongue
The angels song of glory

Hosana, Hosana,
Hosana to his name

The heav'n-ly star its rays afar
On ev'ry land is throwing
And shall not cease till holy peace
In all the earth is growing

Hosana, Hosana,
Hosana to his name
