English text

1  I love to hear the story Which angel voices tell, How once the King of Glory Came down on earth to dwell. I am both weak and sinful, But this I surely know, The Lord came down to save me, Because He loved me so. 2  I'm glad my blessed Saviour Was once a child like me, To show how pure and holy His little ones might be; And if I try to follow His footsteps here below, He never will forsake me Because He loves me so.

3  To sing His love and mercy My sweetest songs I'll raise, And, though I cannot see Him, I know He hears my praise; For He has kindly promised That even I may go To sing among His angels, Because He loves me so.
