Born in a stable

Born in a stable, the son of man, from heav’n above descended, to earth on christmasday.
While Bethlehem was sleeping, the angels watch, were keeping, his mother gently weeping,
Sweet tears of joy, to see the infant lying there.


Born in a stable, three eastern kings have travelled far to see him,
A star to show the way, and guarding them from danger,
Lead them to a manger, they saw the holy stranger, and fell down on their knees,
To worship Christ the lord.

Born in a stable, the son of God, the lord of all creation, was born on christmasday.
While all the world was sleeping, the angels watch were keeping,
And Mary gently weeping, sweet tears of joy, to see the infant lying there

Sweet tears of joy, to see the infant lying there
