Refrain:
That boy-child of Mary was born in a stable,
a manger his cradle in Bethlehem.

1 What shall we call him, child of the manger?
What name is given in Bethlehem? (Refrain)

2 His name is Jesu, God ever with us,
God given for us in Bethlehem. (Refrain)

3 He came to save us, he came to help us,
born here among us in Bethlehem. (Refrain)

heaven-sent helper of Bethlehem. (Refrain)

5 Gladly we praise him, love and adore him,
give ourselves to him of Bethlehem. (Refrain)
