How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven.
No ear may hear His coming;
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive Him,
still the dear Christ enters in.
O holy Child of Bethlehem
Descend to us, we pray.
Be born in us today.
We hear the Christmas angels,
The great glad tidings tell,
Oh come to us, abide with us
our Lord Emmanuel.
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.
II Corinthians 5:17
