Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #378 First Line: The Babe in Bethlem's manger laid Refrain First Line: Nowell, Nowell— Lyrics: 1. The Babe in Bethlem’s manger laid,
In humble form so low,
By wond’ring angels is surveyed,
Thro’ all His scenes of woe.
Refrain
Nowell, Nowell—
O sing a Savior’s birth:
All hail His coming down to earth,
Who raises us to Heav’n.
2. A Savior! sinners all around
Sing, shout the wondrous word;
Let every bosom hail the sound,
A Savior! Christ the Lord. [Refrain]
3. For not to sit on David’s throne
With worldly pomp and joy,
He came for sinners to atone,
And Satan to destroy. [Refrain]
4. To preach the word of life divine,
To give the living bread,
To heal the sick with hand benign,
And raise to life the dead. [Refrain]
5. He preached, He suffered, bled and died,
Uplift ’twixt earth and skies;
In sinners’ stead was crucified,
For sin a sacrifice. [Refrain]
6. Well may we sing the Savior’s birth,
Who need the grace so giv’n,
And hail His coming down to earth,
Who raises us to Heav’n. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [The Babe in Bethlem's manger laid]
