Representative lyrics

English (Original Language)

1. Once within a lowly stable, Where the sheep and oxen lay, A loving mother laid her baby In a manger filled with hay. Mary was the mother there, And the Christ that baby fair.

2. God sent us this loving baby From his home in heav’n above, And he came down to show all people How to help and how to love. This is why the angels bright Sang for joy that Christmas night.
