| lyric | 1. 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.
2. Once the most holy child of Salvation
Gently and lowly lived before,
Now as our glorious mighty Redeemer
See Him victorious o’er each foe.
3. Porphets foretold Him, Infant of wonder
Angels behold Him in His throne
Worthy our Saviour of all our praises
Happy for ever are His own. |
