Humility And Highness - Carol Series (17)

orchidee



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
