The First and Last, the Prince of Peace,

The Conqueror through whom wars cease.

The times predicted are fulfill'd,

God's fiery wrath must now be still'd;

His Son, made man, doth bear our load

Of guilt, our peace buys with His blood.

It is a time of joy to-day,

With mourning and with woe away!

Woe, woe to him who us revil'd!

God's seen in flesh—we're reconcil'd.
