<p>O Jesus Christ, Thy manger is<br>
My paradise at which my soul reclineth.<br>
For there, O Lord, doth lie the Word<br>
Made flesh for us; herein Thy grace forthshineth.</p>
<p>He Whom the sea and wind obey<br>
Doth come to serve the sinner in great meekness.<br>
Thou, God&#8217;s own Son, with us art one,<br>
Dost join us and our children in our weakness.</p>
<p>Thy light and grace our guilt efface,<br>
Thy heavenly riches all our loss retrieving.<br>
Immanuel, Thy birth doth quell<br>
The power of hell and Satan&#8217;s bold deceiving.</p>
<p>Thou Christian heart, whoe&#8217;er thou art,<br>
Be of good cheer and let no sorrow move thee!<br>
For God&#8217;s own Child, in mercy mild,<br>
Joins thee to Him&#8212;how greatly God must love thee!
<p>Remember thou what glory now<br>
The Lord prepared thee for all earthly sadness.<br>
The angel host can never boast<br>
Of greater glory, greater bliss or gladness.</p>
<p>The world may hold her wealth and gold;<br>
But thou, my heart, keep Christ as thy true Treasure.<br>
To Him hold fast until at last<br>
A crown be thine and honor in full measure.</p>
