Lying In a Manger

Led by angel lullabies, Shepherds, poor and lowly, Linger at the manger-side, Little One, they know thee, God has sent them from the fields, To look upon their Savior, Thou, the Hope of Israel, Lying in a manger, Wise men riding from afar, Hasten to behold thee, Following a beacon star, Little One, they know thee, God will lead them through the night, To seek their newborn Savior, Thou, the Everlasting Light, Lying in a manger, Hear the tidings heaven tells, Peace is come on earth to dwell. Christ the King, Emmanuel, Lying in a manger, Pure, and perfect; undefiled, Little One, so holy, God thy Father, thou His Child, Little One, we know thee, God has sent thee from on high, To be our Lord and Savior, Thou our Way, our Truth, our Life, Lying in a manger.
