Lyrics
(Traditional carol)
1. The Babe in Bethl’em’s manger laid,
In humble form so low,
By wond’ring angels is surveyed
Through all His scenes of woe.
Refrain
Noël, Noël,
Now sing a Savior’s birth,
All hail His coming down to earth,
Who raises us to heaven.
2. A Savior, sinners all around!
Sing, shout the wondrous word;
Let every bosom hail the sound,
A Savior! Christ the Lord. Refrain
3. For, not to sit on David’s throne
With worldly pomp and joy,
He came for sinners to atone,
And Satan to destroy. Refrain
4. Well may we sing the Savior’s birth,
Who need the grace so given,
And hail His coming down to earth,
Who raises us to heaven. Refrain
