1.
The Babe in Bethl'em's manger laid,
In humble form so low,
By wond'ring angels is surveyed
Thro' all His scenes of woe.
Chorus:
Noël, Noël
Now 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.
(Chorus)
3.
For, not to sit on David's throne
With worldly pomp and joy,
He came for sinners to atone,
And Satan to destroy.
(Chorus)
4.
To preach the word of life divine,
And feed with living bread,
To heal the sick with hand benign,
And raise to life the dead.
(Chorus)
5.
He preached, he suffered, bled and died,
Uplift 'twixt earth and skies;
In sinner's stead was crucified,
For sin to sacrifice.
(Chorus)
6.
Well may we sing a Savior's birth,
Who need the grace so given,
And hail His coming down to earth,
Who raises us to heaven.
(Chorus)
