| 1. O come, little children, O come, one and all, O come to the manger in Bethlehem’s stall And see what the Father in heaven so true Has done to prepare a bright Christmas for you. |
4. O kneel with the shepherds in worshipful prayer And join the dear angels who also are there; Sing glory to God in the heavens above And thank Him for Jesus, the gift of His love. |
| 2. Behold, in the manger, that strange little bed, A Child, sweet and gentle, is resting His head, A Babe, clad in garments so pure and so white, And fairer by far than the angels of light. |
5. O dearest, O sweetest, O wonderful Child, So pure and so holy, so good and so mild; For us poor and weak in the manger hast lain, For us like an innocent lamb Thou wast slain. |
| 3. On hay and on straw in the manger He lies; Both Mary and Joseph, with fond, loving eyes, Are gazing upon Him, and shepherds draw near, And jubilant angels from heaven appear. |
6. Receive then our hearts, which we offer to Thee, And keep them from sin and from wickedness free; O render them holy and blessed like Thine, Thou Son of the Highest, Thou Infant divine. |
