A Babe is born in Bethlehem
Christmas Hymn & Carol LyricsA Babe
is born in Bethlehem, Bethlehem,
Therefore rejoice Jerusalem,
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Within a manger He doth lie, He doth lie,
Whose throne is set above the sky.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Stillness was all the manger round, manger round,
The creature its
Creator found.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
The wise men came, led by
the star, by the star,
Gold, myrrh, and incense brought from far.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
His mother is the virgin mild, virgin mild,
And He the Father’s only Child.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
The
serpent’s wound He beareth not, beareth not,
Yet takes our blood, and
shares our lot,
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Our human flesh He enters
in, enters in,
But bears no single taint of sin.
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
To fallen man Himself He bowed, self He bowed,
That He
might lift us up to God.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
On this most
blessèd Jubilee, Jubilee,
All glory be, O God, to Thee.
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
O Holy Three, we Thee adore, Thee adore,
This day,
henceforth, forevermore.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
