4 "The heavenly babe you there shall find
To human view display'd,
All meanly wrapp'd in swathing bands,
And in a manger laid."
5 Thus spake the seraph, and forthwith
Appear'd a shining throng
Of angels praising God, on high,
And thus addressed their song:
6 "All glory be to God on high,
And to the earth be peace;
Good will henceforth, from heaven to men,
Begin and never cease."
Nuhguhmoowin 8. C. M.
"_While shepherds watch'd their flocks by night._"
Ma gwah mon 'tain 'see we nen' wug
Nuh nah muh duh be wod;
An gel nun kee duh gwe she noon
Pe kuh noo ne go wod.
2 "Ka go ween sa ge ze ka goon,"
O gee be e go won;
"Ke be me nwah je mo too nim
Uh Keeng ain duh che yaig.
3 "Noong oom ke nee ge tuh mah goom,
Da vid Wa gwe se jin,
Ish pe ming tuh zhe Mun e doo,
Na non duh we e wa:
4 "E zhah yook owh uh be noo jee
Ish pe ming wain je bod,
Uh wuh kon e we guh me goong,
Ke dah wah buh mah wah."
5 Kah ish quah kuh noo ne go wod
Ke wah sa yah ze wun;
Ish pe ming tuh zhe an gel nun,
Oowh kee e nuh uh moon.
6 "Kuh ke nuh mah moo yuh wuh mik,
Ma no Mun e doo wid;
Zhuh wain dah go ze win mee nod,
Uh keeng a yah ne jin."
Hymn 9. C. M.
"_There is a land of pure delight._"
There is a land of pure delight,
Where saints immortal reign:
Infinite day excludes the night,
And pleasures banish pain.
2 There everlasting spring abides,
And never-withr'ing flowers:
Death like a narrow sea divides
That heavenly land from ours.
3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood
Stand dressed in living green:
So to the Jews fair Canaan stood,
While Jordan roll'd between.
4 But tim'rous mortals start and shrink
To cross that narrow sea;
And linger shiv'ring on the brink,
And fear to launch away.
5 O could we make our doubts remove,
Those gloomy doubts that rise,
And see the Canaan that we love,
With unbeclouded eyes!
6 Could we but climb where Moses stood,
And view the landscape o'er,
Not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood,
Should fright us from the shore.
Nuhguhmoowin 9. C. M.
"_There is a land of pure delight._"
Uh yah muh gud suh kah ge ga,
Me no tuh nuh kee win;
Kah wee kah te be kuh se noon,
A peech o nah ne gwuk.
2 Kah ge nig me noo kuh me ne,
Me nwah be go ne nig,
Mee a tuh go ewh ne bo win,
Ka be shkah ga muh guk.
3 Ke che me suh we nah gwud suh
E we de uh gah ming;
O mong e zhe suh e nuh gom,
Oon zah bun je ga shung.
