Away in a manger
swaddled in cloth
the Word became flesh
when all hope was lost.
Giving all glory
to the newborn King
the shepherds rejoiced
and the angels did sing
Could Mary have known
this immaculate birth
of the Savior, our Lord
God’s son sent to earth,
could restore our lost souls
and give us new worth
Let us recall
at Christmas this year
the reason for the season
Our Savior who draws near
Don't forget to celebrate
The most precious gift of all
the virgin birth of Jesus
who saved us from the Fall
So, take some time this season
to love those who have a need
with joy and peace you'll bring honor
to our Everlasting King
