      Lyrics:
      Fair is the Child within the stable yonder
      Softly he sleeps and fills the heart with wonder
      Blessed gift of God, the virgin guards his slumber
      While angels delight to praise his holy name

      Immanuel, Immanuel, the heavens tell of thy coming
      Immanuel, Immanuel, this night we rejoice in thee

      What light divine o'er Bethlehem is streaming?
      Shadows of night in silent haste are fleeing
      Rising o'er the world, the star of stars is gleaming
      To hallow the place wherein the Babe is laid

      Immanuel, Immanuel, the heavens tell of thy coming
      Immanuel, Immanuel, this night we rejoice in thee

      Fair is the Child! the Lord of all creation
      Promise of life and Light unto all nations!
      Wrapped in swaddling bands, the hope of our salvation
      We kneel at his feet to worship him our king

      Immanuel, Immanuel, the heavens tell of thy coming
      Immanuel, Immanuel, this night we rejoice in thee
