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!
