189. To us is born a blessed child

To us is born a blessed child,
To us a Son is given,
Born of a virgin undefiled,
He is our hope of heaven;
Had not this Child to us been born,
We all had been in sin forlorn
He is our sole salvation;
All thanks, Lord Jesus Christ, to Thee,
That Thou wert pleased a man to be:
Save us from condemnation!
