A Boy Was Born
A boy was born in Bethlehem,
Rejoice for that Jerusalem!
Alleluia!
For low he lay within a stall
Who rules for ever overall
Alleluia!
He let himself a servant be,
That all mankind he might set free.
Alleluia!
Then praise the Word of God who came
To dwell within a human frame.
Alleluia!
And praised be God in threefold might,
In glory bright
Eternal good and infinite.
Alleluia!
