1. See, amid the winter's snow, Born for us on earth below; See, the tender Lamb appears, Promised from eternal years: 2. Hail, thou ever blessed morn, Hail, redemption's happy dawn; Sing through all Jerusalem, Christ is born in Bethlehem. 3. Lo, within a manger lies He who built the starry skies; He who throned in height sublime Sits amid the cherubim:

4. Say, ye holy shepherds, say What your joyful news today; Wherefore have ye left your sheep On the lonely mountain steep? 5. As we watched at dead of night, Lo, we saw a wondrous light; Angels singing "Peace on earth" Told us of the saviour's birth: 6. Sacred infant, all divine, What a tender love was thine, Thus to come from highest bliss Down to such a world as this:

7. Teach, O teach us, holy child, By thy face so meek and mild, Teach, us to resemble thee In thy sweet humility.
