lyrics

See the child that Mary bore, upon her lap asleep.
Come unto Him and praise the Lord, with angels o'er Him to keep.
Bring Him your sorrow, all of your grief
Lay ev'ry weakness at His feet,
He will sustain you, give you peace,
And lead you into life.

See the child so sweet and dear, within the manger bare.
Lay on His alter all your fears,
And He will absolve your cares.
Bring Him your blindness, born of pride,
Give Him your broken heart to bind,
It was for this He suffered and died,
That He might make you whole.

See the child with gifts of gold, and He will carry you home.
He will sustain you and defend through perils yet unknown.
Com see the child, the king within,
Christ your constant heav'nly King
Has come to you in a manger bare,
Come worship and adore.

Come worship and adore.
