To Us a Child of Hope Is Born
CHILD OF HOPE  |  Same-Tune Hymns
Author: Scottish Psalter, 1880
Paraphrase of Isaiah 9:6
Musician: Joan J. Pinkston, b. 1947

To us a Child of hope is born;
To us a Son is giv'n;
Him shall the tribes of earth obey,
Him all the hosts of heav'n.

His name shall be the Prince of Peace,
For evermore adored,
The Wonderful, the Counsellor,
The great and mighty Lord.

His pow'r increasing still shall spread,
His reign no end shall know;
Justice shall guard his throne above,
And peace abound below.
