158. As Each Happy Christmas

1 As each happy Christmas
Dawns on earth again,
Comes the holy Christ child
To the hearts of men.

2 Enters with His blessing
Into every home,
Guides and guards our footsteps
As we go and come.

3 All unknown, beside me
He will ever stand
And will safely lead me
With his own right hand.
