In Bethlehem Hear I Today Lyrics

1. In Bethlehem hear I today
The Angels chant a merry lay.

2. And 'Glory be to God on high,
That willeth Peace on earth,' they cry.

3. Now doth the Mother-maid enfold
Him whom high heav'n can no-way hold.

4. 'Mid darkness hath the Day-star shined,
Exalting men of humble mind,

5. Who, with the Angels in the sky,
Sing, 'Glory be to God on high!'
