Tune: Cradle Song
(\'Away in a manger\')
*********
Sleep, sweet babe, rest your head
On low manger bed
Descended from greatness
To meek humbleness
From heaven you di come
To make earth your home
Live midst people a while
Know each human style
Came sinners to redeem
Light of world, bright beam
Though not all would accept
You paid their sin\'s debt
But inspire believers
Gospel-receivers
To evangelise, go
That others may know
Not now a babe, but Lord
Adn true still your word
Saviour ever-reigning
Forgiveness you bring
And eternal life to
Who will believe true
In you, Son of God who
Comes, makes mankind new
