Sunday's Hymn
Sunday, December 5, 2010 at 1:15PM Oh, come, little children, oh, come, one and all,
To Bethlehem’s stable, in Bethlehem’s stall.
And see with rejoicing this glorious sight,
Our Father in heaven has sent us this night.
Oh, see in the manger, in hallowèd light
A star throws its beam on this holiest sight.
In clean swaddling clothes lies the heavenly Child,
More lovely than angels, this Baby so mild.
Oh, there lies the Christ Child, on hay and on straw;
The shepherds are kneeling before Him with awe.
And Mary and Joseph smile on Him with love,
While angels are singing sweet songs from above.
There are so many different versions of this children’s hymn, probably different translations from the German. I wish I could have found the words used in this sweet video below, but I couldn’t.

I had my "Heart Aflame" post up yesterday, but now that it's Monday, I guess it doesn't matter :)
I've included it now. That way it'll be there next week when I got through them next week.
Sorry about that! :)
I love this song. We sang it in a Christmas program in school when I was young.
