Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
See amid the winter's snow,
Born for us on earth below,
See, the gentle Lamb appears,
Promised from eternal years.
REFRAIN
Hail that ever blessed morn,
Hail redemption's happy dawn
Sing thro' all Jerusalem:
Christ is born in Bethlehem.
VERSE 2
Lo, within a manger lies
He who built the starry skies;
He who throned in height sublime,
Sits amid the Cherubim.
VERSE 3
Say ye Holy shepherds say,
Tell your joyful news today,
Why have you now left your sheep
On the lonely mountain steep?
VERSE 4
"As we watched at dead of night,
Lo, we saw a wondrous light;
Angels singing 'Peace on earth'
Told us of the Saviour's birth".
VERSE 5
Sacred infant, all divine,
What a tender love was thine,
Thus to come from highest bliss;
Down to such a world is this.
VERSE 6
Teach us, teach us Holy child,
By thy face so meek and mild,
Teach us to resemble Thee,
In Thy sweet humility.
