1 When Christmas morn is dawning
In faith I would repair
Unto the lowly manger;
My Savior lieth there;
Unto the lowly manger;
My Savior lieth there.

2 How kind, O loving Savior,
To come from heav'n above!
From sin and evil save us,
And keep us in Thy love;
From sin and evil save us,
And keep us in Thy love.

3 We need thee, blessed Jesus,
Our dearest friend Thou art;
Forbid that we by sinning
Should grieve Thy loving heart;
Forbid that we by sinning
Should grieve Thy loving heart.

Amen.
