Now We Bring Our Christmas Treasures

Author: Maria H. Bulfinch Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now we bring our Christmas treasures, Loving thoughts and deeds we bring; Childlike hearts we gladly offer To the Child, the children’s king. To the Child, who in the manger, Lay upon that Christmas morn, When the angels came to tell us That the children’s king was born. 2 And He lives throughout the ages, Lives and reigns in earth and sky; Angel hosts still sing the glory Of the children’s king on high. Yet He cares for children’s praises: So, with heart and voice we ring; Glory in the highest, glory, To the Child, the children’s king. Used With Tune: CHESHAM Text Sources: Infant Songs by William A. Ogden (Bellefontaine, OH: W. A. Ogden, 1861)
