He Was Born In Manger

The redeemer of the world was born in a manger
He was king, but he plunged into the catacombs
To feel the needs of the world
He was born in a manger who by name is Emmanuel

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to the
Of goodwill! Gabriel said when he announced the
Birth of Jesus, in humble manger was born
To teach us what humility and solidarity mean

The redeemer of the world was born in a manger
He was king, but he plunged into the catacombs
To feel the needs of the world
He was born in a manger who by name is Emmanuel

He was the redeemer of the world Jesus, to his own he came
But his own did not receive him, come Jesus and fill my heart
With your Holy Spirit, renew my faith and give me a new heart
Where only love of neighbor can dwell, I love you Jesus

The redeemer of the world was born in a manger
He was king, but he plunged into the catacombs
To feel the needs of the world
He was born in a manger who by name is Emmanuel
