Author: Edith M. G. Reed (1885-1933) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #86 (1987) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Topics: God, Saviour Born (Christmas Seasonal) Lyrics: 1 Infant holy, infant lowly,
for his bed a cattle stall;
oxen lowing, little knowing
Christ the babe is Lord of all.
Swift are winging angels singing,
nowells ringing, tidings bringing:
Christ the babe is Lord of all;
Christ the babe is Lord of all!
2 Flocks were sleeping; shepherds keeping
vigil till the morning new,
saw the glory, heard the story -
tidings of the gospel true.
Thus rejoicing, free from sorrow,
praises voicing greet tomorrow:
Christ the babe was born for you;
Christ the babe was born for you! Languages: English Tune Title: INFANT HOLY
Infant holy, Infant lowly
