1 Child in the manger, infant of Mary;
outcast and stranger, Lord of all;
Child who inherits all our transgressions,
all our demerits on Him fall.
2 Once the most holy Child of salvation
gently and lowly lived below;
now as our glorious mighty Redeemer,
see Him victorious o'er each foe.
3 Prophets foretold Him, infant of wonder;
angels behold Him on His throne;
worthy our Savior of all our praises;
happy forever are His own.
