Lyrics (preview)
O Holy Child
O Holy child born in Bethlehem
To mother Mary in the dead of night
The humble spirit of angels singing
The little saviour Jesus Christ is born
- 1 Seasons of expectation together in prayer
- Keeping watch for God's sake making edges right
- Holy family prayer dwelleth in our hearts
- Waiting for our saviour in a manger laid
2 Sentiments of harmony met the shining star
Glory to the people kings and the wise men
Coming from the East bringing gifts for the new born
Gold, myrrh and frankincense, kindness and its needs
3 Peace to generations for ages forever
Abiding with Jesus reigning in our hearts
What a holy child come into our world with God
Bringing forth the good news in the light of God.
