Carol Prayer
How
silently, how silently, the wondrous Gift is giv'n;
So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His
Heav'n.
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;
Cast out our sin, and enter in, be born in us today.
We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings
tell;
O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel!
From "O Little Town of Bethlehem," by Philip Brooks
