Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

The ancient law departs 
The ancient law departs, and all its terrors cease; for Jesus makes with faithful hearts a covenant of peace. 
The Light of Light divine, true brightness undefiled, he bears for us the shame of sin, a holy, spotless Child. 
Today the Name is thine, at which we bend the knee; they call thee Jesus, Child divine! our Jesus deign to be.
