A child is born in Bethlehem Allelujah.<br>
Exult for joy, Jerusalem! Allelujah, Allelujah.<br>
Lo he who reigns above the skies Allelujah.<br>
There in a manger lowly, lies. Allelujah, Allelujah.<br>
The ox and ass in neighb'ring stall Allelujah.<br>
See in that child the Lord of all. Allelujah, Allelujah.<br>
And hingly pilgrims, long foretold Allelujah.<br>
From East bring incense, myrrh and gold, Allelujah, Allelujah.<br>
And enter with their offerings, Allelujah.<br>
To hail the newborn King of King. Allelujah, Allelujah.<br>
He comes, a maiden mothers Son, Allelujah.<br>
Yet earthly father has He none; Allelujah, Allelujah.<br>
And from the serpent's poison free, Allelujah.<br>
He owned our blood and pedigree, Allelujah, Allelujah.<br>
Our feeble flesh and His the same, Allelujah.<br>
Our sinless kinsman He became, Allelujah, Allelujah.<br>
That we, from deadly trail set free, Allelujah.<br>
Like Him, and so like God, should be. Allelujah, Allelujah.<br>
Come then, and on his natal day, Allelujah.<br>
Rejoice before the Lord and pray. Allelujah, Allelujah.<br>
And so the holy One in Three. Allelujah.<br>
Give praise and thanks eternally. Allelujah, Allelujah.<br>

A child is born in Bethlehem Allelujah.
Exult for joy, Jerusalem! Allelujah, Allelujah.

Lo he who reigns above the skies Allelujah.
There in a manger lowly, lies. Allelujah, Allelujah.

The ox and ass in neighb'ring stall Allelujah.
See in that child the Lord of all. Allelujah, Allelujah.

And hingly pilgrims, long foretold Allelujah.
From East bring incense, myrrh and gold, Allelujah, Allelujah.

And enter with their offerings, Allelujah.
To hail the newborn King of King. Allelujah, Allelujah.

He comes, a maiden mothers Son, Allelujah.
Yet earthly father has He none; Allelujah, Allelujah.

And from the serpent's poison free, Allelujah.
He owned our blood and pedigree, Allelujah, Allelujah.

Our feeble flesh and His the same, Allelujah.
Our sinless kinsman He became, Allelujah, Allelujah.

That we, from deadly trail set free, Allelujah.
Like Him, and so like God, should be. Allelujah, Allelujah.

Come then, and on his natal day, Allelujah.
Rejoice before the Lord and pray. Allelujah, Allelujah.

And so the holy One in Three. Allelujah.
Give praise and thanks eternally. Allelujah, Allelujah.
