Gentle Mary Laid Her Child
Lowly In A Manger;
There He Lay, The Undefiled,
To The World A Stranger.
Such A Babe In Such A Place,
Can He Be The Saviour?
Ask The Saved Of All The Race
Who Have Found His Favour.
Angels Sang About His Birth,
Wise Men Sought And Found Him;
Heaven’s Star Shone Brightly Forth
Glory All Around Him.
Shepherds Saw The Wondrous Sight,
Heard The Angels Singing;
All The Plains Were Lit That Night,
All The Hills Were Ringing.
Gentle Mary Laid Her Child
Lowly In A Manger;
He Is Still The Undefiled,
But No More A Stranger.
Son Of God Of Humble Birth,
Beautiful The Story;
Praise His Name In All The Earth,
Hail! The King Of Glory!
