 6A draughty stable with an open door; 
 7Mary cradling the babe she bore; 
 8The Prince of glory is His name.

11O now carry me to Bethlehem, 
12To see the Lord appear to men; 
13Just as poor as was the stable then, 
14The Prince of glory when He came.

17Star of silver, sweep across the skies, 
18Show where Jesus in the manger lies; 
19Shepherds, swiftly from your stupor rise 
20To see the Saviour of the world.

23Angels, sing again the song you sang, 
24Bring God's glory to the heart of man; 
25Sing that Bethlehem's little baby can 
26Be salvation to the soul.

29Mine are riches, from Thy poverty, 
30From Thine innocence, eternity; 
31Mine, forgiveness by Thy death for me, 
32Child of sorrow for my joy.

35O now carry me to Bethlehem, 
36To see the Lord appear to men; 
37Just as poor as was the stable then, 
38The Prince of glory when He came.
