1. In manger lies a child so sweet: what joy and delight
+
A star so bright to all the world reveals a Son, the Light
+
In humble bed He lies asleep where cattle have fed
+
His mother awed in watchful prayer, so gently strokes His head
+
2. The shepherds leave their flocks and come to bring Him their love
+
While angels sing in joyous praise, hosannas from above
+
From far away the wise men three their precious gifts bring
+
The whole wide world before Him kneels: He is the little King!
