The Christ Child
“This Christ Child” shall the Savior be.
The animals have come around
to this mother name of Mary,
as angels make a joyful sound.
The animals have come around
the kings who traveled from far away.
As angels make a joyful sound
they must leave at the break of day.
The kings who traveled from far way
report that danger doth abound.
They must leave at the break of day.
Safety from Herod must be found. .
Reports that danger doth abound ,
sent to the Earth from Heaven above.
Safety from Herod must be found,
warnings for precious Child they love.
Sent to the Earth from heaven above,
to this mother name of Mary
warnings for precious Child they love.
This "Christ Child" shall the Savior be.
