O Babe! In Manger Lying
Author: William Chatterton Dix Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16079 First Line: O Babe! in manger lying Lyrics: 1 O Babe! in manger lying,
O Child most fair to see,
The first fruits of the Gentiles
By star were led to Thee;
We now with joyful worship
Do haste to Bethl’hem town,
To greet Thee with Thy mother, (3)
And humbly there fall down.
2 Full sweet the merry chanting,
The angel choirs do make,
With such for marching music,
Who would not travel take?
Though wind be sharp and piercing,
And snow lie deep tonight,
Much cheer and good awaits us, (3)
And love shall warm us quite.
3 A goodly band we gather,
And some are sick and sad,
While others are right merry,
And sing, they be so glad;
But this dear Child, all sorrow
Will kindly take away,
And crown the joyful-hearted, (3)
With bliss that lasts for aye.
4 The star o’erhead burns brightly,
And we go on apace;
And presently, are spying,
A mean and shameful place;
There come, we make low knocking,
The shepherds ope the door,
And straightway Christ our Savior, (3)
We worship and implore.
5 Sweet Babe! most condescending,
O by Thy spotless birth,
Let light arise in darkness,
And peace come to the earth;
Rest for the heavy-laden,
And joy for those who weep,
In Bethlehem of Jewry, (3)
Our God doth always keep. Languages: English Tune Title: [O Babe! in manger lying]
