121. Savior of the nations, come

1 Savior of the nations, come;
Virgin's Son, here make your home!
Marvel now, O heaven and earth,
that the Lord chose such a birth.

2 Not by human flesh and blood;
by the Spirit of our God
was the Word of God made flesh,
woman's off-spring, pure and fresh.
Come, Savior, come.
