Lyrics

Verse 1 Gentle Mary laid her Child lowly in a manger; There He lay, the undefiled, to the world a Stranger, Such a Babe in such a place, can He be the Savior? Ask the saved of all the race who have found His favor. Verse 2 Angels sang about His birth; wise men sought and found Him; Heaven's star shone brightly forth, glory all around Him, Shepherds saw the wondrous sight, heard the angels singing; All the plains were lit that night, all the hills were ringing. Verse 3 Gentle Mary laid her Child lowly in a manger; He is still the undefiled, but no more a stranger, Son of God, of humble birth, beautiful the story; Praise His Name in all the earth, hail the King of glory!...
