Christmas Songs ‎#30

30. Born in a Manger

1 Think now on when our Lord was born,
How wise men from the east did come
To worship Him and gifts to bring
Unto the Savior, Lord and King.

Chorus:
Born in a manger, Christ is our Savior and friend,
Star in the east was seen by the wise men who came
Seeking the Savior who was salvation to bring,
Born in a manger, Christ is our Savior and King.

2 Think how they ope'd their treasures there,
Presenting gifts of gold and myrrh,
For God had warned them in a dream
To go the way the light did gleam. [Chorus]

3 Our Savior when in Bethlehem,
Where wise men came and worshiped Him
Who then and now is Lord and King,
Salvation to the world did bring. [Chorus]
