Child
in the manger,
Infant
of Mary;
Outcast
and stranger,
Lord
of all!
Child
who inherits
All
our transgressions,
All
our demerits
On
him fall.
Once
the most holy
Child
of salvation
Gently
and lowly
Lived
below;
Now,
as our glorious
Mighty
Redeemer,
See
him victorious
O’er
each foe.
Prophets
foretold him,
Infant
of wonder;
Angels
behold him
On
his throne;
Worthy
our Saviour
Of
all their praises;
Happy
for ever
Are
his own.
