Shepherds heard the angels as they sang,
Of the peace that He would bring.
So they journeyed far to find the special child,
A humble stall behind an inn, in a little town of Bethlehem.
They found Mary's baby meek and mild
Emmanuel, God came down to walk and talk with man,
He laid aside His royal crown to be our spotless lamb
Holy, the angels declared as they looked down at the child.
Our gift of mercy, in a manger meek and mild.
The Son of Almighty, a glorious child,
Lay in a manger, so tender and mild
The good faithful shepherd, the one spotless sheep,
The lion of Judah, lowly and meek
Emmanuel, God came down to walk and talk with man,
He laid aside His royal crown to be our spotless lamb
Holy, the angels declared as they looked down at the child.
Our gift of mercy, in a manger meek and mild.
Our gift of mercy, in a manger meek and mild.
in a manger meek and mild.
