Born on earth the divine Christ child (Il est né le divin enfant)    

Ref.: Born on earth the divine Christ child
Oboes rejoice with bagpipes vying
Born on earth the divine Christ child
Sing to welcome the savior mild

1) 'Tis four thousand years and more
Men his birth have been prophesying
'Tis four thousand years and more
While we longed for the joys in store.

2) Ah such beauty and charm adore!
Ah such perfection of grace undying
Ah such beauty and charm adore!
Promised us in days of yore.

3) In a stable here on earth
Jesus in a manger lying
In a stable here on earth
Oh how lowly our savior's birth.

4) Jesus savior heaven's Lord
Tiny child in a manger crying
Jesus savior heaven's Lord
Christ our King for evermore.
