      Lyrics:
      Jesus, Lord, at thy birth
      The heavens are singing a lullaby
      Legions of angels are watching nigh
      Jesus, Lord, at thy birth
      Not a cradle is found for thy bed
      But a manger of hay in its stead
      Where the cattle may feed
      Must suffice for thy need
      Jesus, Lord, at thy birth

      Jesus, Lord, at thy birth
      The shepherds adore thee on bended knee
      Wise men shall hasten to worship thee
      Jesus, Lord, at thy birth
      Neither silver nor gold crowns thy head
      But thy Father hath crowned thee instead
      With his glory and light
      With his mercy and might
      Jesus, Lord, at thy birth

      Jesus, Lord, at thy birth
      With shepherds and wise men we seek thy face
      And join with the angels to sing thy praise
      Jesus, Lord, at thy birth
      Not the treasures of earth do we bring,
      But to honor thee, Savior and King
      Now and ever thou art
      Enthroned in our hearts
      Jesus, Lord, at thy birth


      This song is a part of the Silent Night Christmas cantata. Because of this, the SATB pages are numbered 17-20.
