Мельхиор Вульпиус - Gentle Mary laid her child - ноты, текст песни (слова)

Gentle Mary laid her child 
 Lowly in a manger; 
 There he lay, the undefiled, 
 To the world a stranger. 
 Such a babe in such a place, 
 Can he be the Saviour? 
 Ask the saved of all the race 
 Who have found his favor.
 
 Angels sang about his birth; 
 Wise men sought and found him; 
 Heaven's star shone brightly forth, 
 Glory all around him. 
 Shepherds saw the wondrous sight, 
 Heard the angels singing; 
 All the plains were lit that night. 
 All the hills were ringing.
 
 Gentle Mary laid her child 
 Lowly in a manger; 
 He is still the undefiled, 
 But no more a stranger. 
 Son of God, of humble birth, 
 Beautiful the story; 
 Praise his Name in all the earth, 
 Hail the King of Glory!
