1. Waken, Christian children,
Up and let us sing
With glad voice, the praises
Of our new-born King.
2. Up! 'tis meet to welcome
With a joyous lay,
Christ the King of Glory,
Born for us today.
3. Come, nor fear to seek Him,
Children tho' we be;
Once He said of children,
"Let them come to Me."
4. In a manger lowly,
Sleeps the Heavenly Child;
O'er Him fondly bendeth
Mary, Mother mild.
5. Far above that stable,
Up in Heaven so high,
One bright star out-shineth,
Watching silently.
6. Fear not then to enter,
Though we cannot bring
Gold, or myrrh, or incense
Fitting for a King.
7. Gifts He asketh richer,
Offerings costlier still,
Yet may Christian children
Bring them if they will.
8. Brighter than all jewels
Shines the modest eye;
Best of gifts He loveth
Infant purity.
9. Haste we then to welcome,
With a joyous lay,
Christ, the King of Glory,
Born for us today.
