Birth of Christ · Hymn 282 · 10.8.10.8
Child in the manger infant of Mary
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Phil. 2:11
1.
Child in the manger infant of Mary
Out cast and stranger Lord of all
Child who inherits all our transgressions
All our demerits on him fall.
2.
Once the Most Holy Child of salvation
Gently and lowly lived below
Now, as our glorious Mighty Redeemer
See him victorious o’er each toe
3.
Prophets foretold him infant of wonder
Angels behold him on his throne
Worthy our Saviour of all their praises
Happy for ever are his own
Amen
