In the Manger of Bethlehem
One night long ago over Bethlehem's plain
The stars shone with radiant light;
The shepherds were watching their flocks where they lay,
When suddenly burst on their sight
A vision of angels, who sang a sweet song
Of peace and good-will unto men:
"A Saviour is born," cried the heavenly throng,
"In a manger in Bethlehem."
Chorus:
Seeking, they sought till they found Him,
Jesus, the Saviour of men;
Humbly they knelt and adored Him,
In the manger of Bethlehem.
Three wise men beheld a most wonderful star,
Announcing the birth of a King;
It showed them the way from their countries afar,
Their presence and homage to bring;
In great kingly palace they sought Him, but then
The star's light was hidden from them;
They found Him, at last, in the sweet virgin's care,
In a manger in Bethlehem.
(Chorus)
So still we must seek Him with longing untold,
With purpose unchanging and true;
We cannot bring off'rings of incense and gold,
His infant face we cannot view;
But we may His glorious gospel adorn,
Give glory unto His great name;
To all we may tell of the Christ who was born
In a manger in Bethlehem.
(Chorus)
Have lyrics, need music "In the Manger of Bethlehem"
Re: Have lyrics, need music "In the Manger of Bethlehem"
Do you have any other of the verses for this song? I must have been 3-5 years old when I heard this at I believe was a Baptist church.
