Lyrics
Little Jesus Child , hope for all the earth
Love and mercy borne by His holy birth
Bring you treasures all, gold and incense rare
But He comes to give a gift beyond compare
(refrain)
Hear the heavens rejoice
Let the angels sing
Set a star on high
For the newborn King
Have you not been told
Of this holy morn
Here in Bethlehem
Is our Savior born
Little Jesus Child, precious babe foretold
Joy and rapture flow, more than hearts can hold
Though I fear to gaze o this wondrous sight
I can do naught else but draw to Your light
(refrain)
Little Jesus Child, see your servant poor
I have brought mine own for I have nothing more
Blessed be this night and blessed be this place
And blessings on my soul to have seen your face
(refrain)
