|
<p>Precious Child, so sweetly sleeping<br>
|
|
In a virgin’s fond embrace;<br>
|
|
Heav’nly hosts their watch are keeping<br>
|
|
O’er Thy humble dwelling place;<br>
|
|
Blest Messiah, newborn King,<br>
|
|
Let my heart its tribute bring.</p>
|
|
<p>Anthems joyous now are ringing<br>
|
|
In the skies of Bethlehem;<br>
|
|
Angels their sweet song are singing,<br>
|
|
“Peace on earth, good will to men.”<br>
|
|
Precious Jesus, at Thy birth<br>
|
|
Heaven’s peace is brought to earth.</p>
|
|
<p>Sweetly rest, Thou promised Savior,<br>
|
|
By the prophets long foretold;<br>
|
|
Brightly beams the Father’s favor,<br>
|
|
Now all men His love behold.<br>
|
|
Virgin born Immanuel,<br>
|
|
Let my tongue Thy praises tell!</p>
|
|
<p>Promised Savior, I adore Thee,<br>
|
|
Son of David, Son of God!<br>
|
|
What can mortals bring before Thee?<br>
|
|
All is Thine on earthly sod.<br>
|
|
Take my heart and let it be<br>
|
|
Filled with love, dear Child, to Thee.</p>
