Lyrics
Gentle Mary laid her child lowly in a manger.
There he lay, the undefiled, To the world a stranger.
Such a babe in such a place, can he be the savior?
Ask the saved of all the race who have found his favor.
Angles sang about his birth; wise men sought and found Him.
Heaven's star shone brightly forth, Glory all around Him.
Shepherds saw the wondrous sight, Heard the angels singing
All the plains were light that night, all the hills were ringing.
He is still the undefiled but no more a stranger.
Son of God, of humble birth, beautiful the story,
praise his name in all the earth, Hail the King of Glory!
