Child In the Manger

Child in the manger
Infant of Mary
Came as a stranger
Born in a stall
Sweet little Jesus
Sent down from heaven
God's gift of new life
Offered to all

Once the most Holy
Child of salvation
Gently and lowly
Lay here below
Blessed peacemaker
Mighty redeemer
See Him victorius
Over each foe

Prophets foretold Him
Infant of wonder
Angels behold Him
There on His throne
Worthy the Savior
Of all our praises
Happy and ever
Blessed are His own
