See! in yonder manger low

See! in yonder manger low,

Born for us on earth below,

See! the tender Lamb appears

Promised from eternal years.

            Hail, thou ever blessed morn!

            Hail, redemption’s happy dawn!

            Sing through all Jerusalem,

            ‘Christ is born in Bethlehem!’

Lo! within a manger lies

He who built the starry skies,

He who, throned in height sublime

Sits amid the cherubim:

Sacred Infant, all Divine,

What a tender love was thine,

Thus to come from highest bliss

Down to such a world as this!
