In fancy let us go inside
The manger, crude and bear,
And kneel before the Christ-child
So gently sleeping there.
God's angels hover all around
To shield the baby from harm
His mother, Mary, cradles Him
Within her loving arm.
Remember how, at the age of twelve
He left His parents side
And stayed within the temple
To converse with priests and scribes
And later on, beside the sea
A multitude did feed
With fishes three and loaves of two
He satisfied their need.
Remember how he talked with friends
And tried to show the way
As He still leads on today
To help us live our life with Him
And in Jesus' name we pray.
All we must do is learn to believe
In God's almightypower
And we shall meet Him face to face
At our appointed hour.
