How our Father in heaven has sent us His best

To be born in a manger, the King in the hay

And creation will worship His Name

Bringing peace to us all through the gift of the Son

Now the darkest of ages are done

For the Saviour of heaven has come

I can’t help but respond with an offering of praise

Like the wise men and shepherds, I’ll follow Your light

Like the angels I’ll lift Your Name high

Bringing peace to us all through the gift of Your love

The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head

The stars in the sky looked down where He lay

The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

The little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes

I love Thee Lord Jesus look down from the sky

And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh.

Close by me forever and love me I pray

Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care

And take me to heaven to live with Thee there.
