|
<p>When Christ was born in Bethlehem,<br>
|
|
Fair peace on earth to bring,<br>
|
|
In lowly state of love He came<br>
|
|
To be the children’s King.</p>
|
|
<p>And round Him, then, a holy band<br>
|
|
Of children blest was born,<br>
|
|
Fair guardians of His throne to stand<br>
|
|
Attendant night and morn.</p>
|
|
<p>And unto them this grace was giv’n<br>
|
|
A Savior’s name to own,<br>
|
|
And die for Him Who out of heav’n<br>
|
|
Had found on earth a throne.</p>
|
|
<p>O blessèd babes of Bethlehem,<br>
|
|
Who died to save our King,<br>
|
|
Ye share the martyrs’ diadem,<br>
|
|
And in their anthem sing!</p>
|
|
<p>Your lips, on earth that never spake,<br>
|
|
Now sound th’eternal word;<br>
|
|
And in the courts of love ye make<br>
|
|
Your children’s voices heard.</p>
|
|
<p>Lord Jesus Christ, eternal Child,<br>
|
|
Make Thou our childhood Thine;<br>
|
|
That we with Thee the meek and mild<br>
|
|
May share the love divine.</p>
