Strophe bei Alexius Figularis, 1580-?) Text: Martin Luther Translation (F. Browne): Now come, Saviour of the gentiles, recognised as the child of the Virgin, so that all the world is amazed God ordained such a birth for him. He went forth from his chamber, from the royal palace so pure, by nature God and man, a hero, he hastens to run his way. His course came from the Father and leads back to the Father, he went down to Hell and back to God’s throne. Your crib shines bright and clear, in the night there is a new light, darkness must not overpower it, faith remains always radiant. Praise be given to God the Father, praise be to God his only Son; praise be to god the Holy Ghost for ever and always.
