Baptist Hymnal 1991 ‎#107

107. Oh, Come, Little Children

1. Oh, come, little children,
oh, come, one and all,
To Bethlehem's stable,
in Bethlehem's stall,
And see with rejoicing
this glorious sight,
Our Father in heaven
has sent us this night.

2. Oh, see in the manger,
in hallowed light
A star throws its beam on
this holiest sight.
In clean swaddling clothes
lies the heavenly Child,
More lovely than angels,
this Baby so mild.

3. Oh, there lies the Christ Child,
on hay and on straw;
The shpeherds are kneeling
before Him with awe.
And Mary and Jospeph
smile on Him with love
While angels are singing
sweet songs from above.
