    • Chorus: Christ, the newborn Baby in a manger lay,
    On that Christmas morning, what a glorious day!
    He is Christ , the Savior, prophesied of old;
    God's great gift from heaven, sweetest story told.

    1. Wise men came to worship, shepherds came to praise;
    Angels came announcing God's great gift of grace.
    Hear the oxen lowing, let all nature sing;
    Let the church proclaim it, Praise the newborn King.

    Chorus: Christ, the newborn Baby in a manger lay,
    On that Christmas morning, what a glorious day!
    He is Christ , the Savior, prophesied of old;
    God's great gift from heaven, sweetest story told.

    2. Mary's heart would ponder all these wondrous things,
    From that happy morning life eternal springs;
    For He is the Savior, Gift of God above,
    From the cross He gave us God's eternal love.

    Chorus: Christ, the newborn Baby in a manger lay,
    On that Christmas morning, what a glorious day!
    He is Christ , the Savior, prophesied of old;
    God's great gift from heaven, sweetest story told.
    God's great gift from heaven, sweetest story told.
