Christmas Carol

Child Jesus comes from heavenly height, To save us from sin's keeping: On manger straw, in darksome night, The Blessed One lies sleeping. The star smiles down, the angels greet, The oxen kiss the Baby's feet. Hallelujah, hallelujah, Child Jesus.

Take courage, soul, in grief cast down, Forget the bitter dealing: A Child is born in David's town, To touch all souls with healing. Then let us go and seek the Child, Children like him, meek, undefiled. Hallelujah, hallelujah, Child Jesus.
