Representative Text

1 Come, let us celebrate the birth
Of our Redeemer, King;
Then lay aside all carnal mirth,
And joyful anthems sing.

Refrain:
Then let our voices all unite
In singing of his birth,
And show to men the joyful sight—
Salvation to the earth.

2 Behold the Child in manger born;
Behold Him as He lay;
Behold the Saviour all forlorn
But sanctified today. [Refrain]

3 Look on the Saviour of the world,
Behold the Christ that died;
See Him whose death our robes unfurled
And brought us to his side. [Refrain]

4 Let’s keep this holy feast to Him,
In mem’ry of his Son,
Who died as sacrifice for sin,
And bought us as his own. [Refrain]
