Lyrics:
1. Of the Father's love begotten
Ere the worlds began to be,
He is Alpha and Omega,
He the Source, the Ending He,
Of the things that are, that have been,
And that future years shall see
Evermore and evermore.

2. O that birth forever blessèd, when the virgin, full of grace,
By the Holy Ghost conceiving, bare the Savior of our race;
And the Babe, the world's Redeemer,
First revealed His sacred face, evermore and evermore!

3. O ye heights of heaven, adore Him;
Angel hosts, His praises sing;
Powers, dominions, bow before Him
And extol our God and King.
Let no tongue on earth be silent,
Every voice in concert ring
Evermore and evermore.

Beautiful! My children's choir performed this as part of a national children's choir festival under the direction of Dr. Rollo Dilworth. In fact, we were lucky to have Paul Caldwell join us as a guest and he played percussion for us. It is amazing to hear the power of the older voices with so many musicians and singers. I just love this song and this is performed wonderfully!

Powerful performance!

@RyokoSensei It's actually over 600 musicians (550ish singers) spread through Norsemen, Aurora, Cantorei, Cathedral Choir, Collegiate Chorale, Nordic Choir, and Symphony Orchestra. This piece opened Christmas at Luther last year and closed it at Christmas at Luther in 2002. There's a fabulous recording of the 2002 performance (with children's choir) on YouTube.

@RyokoSensei This is a full six choirs; I was in the loft on the left of the stage. It was amazing to be a part of this performance.

I've sung this song with three separate groups. Once with my high school choir of about 100, once with my church choir of about 20, and with the Luther College choirs you see here. Good luck to you, and HAVE FUN. This piece is always amazing.

[RyokoSensei]
