10869. The Invitation
Teachers:
Jesus once lay in the manger,
Little ones, for you and me;
Holy angels stood in wonder,
Thus the Lord of life to see.
From the starry heights of Heaven
Music floated all around;
And the theme to man was given,
Peace on earth! O joyful sound!
Children:
Joyful sound! our happy voices
Gladly join the sweet refrain,
Jesus came, and earth rejoices
In the blessèd Savior’s name.
