The Babe in Bethl'hem's manger laid,
In humble form so low;
By wond'ring angels in survey'd
Thro' all His scenes of woe.
(Refrain)
Noël Noël, Now sing the Saviour giv'n,
All hail His coming down to earth,
Who raises us to heav'n.
A Savour! sinners all around,
Sing, shot the wondrous word;
let ev'ry bosom hail the sound,
A Saviour! Christ the Lord.
For not to sit on David's throne
With worldly pomp and joy,
He came for sinners to atone
And Satan to destroy.
Well may we sing a Saviour's birth,
Who need the grace so giv'n,
And hail His coming down to earth,
Who raises us to heav'n.
