I Know Not How That Bethlehem's babe

(ST. AGNES. 8.6.8.6)
1.

I know not how that Bethlehem's Babe
Could in the Godhead be;
I only know the Manger Child
Has brought God's life to me.

2.

I know not how that Calvary's cross
A world from sin could free;
I only know its matchless love
Has brought God's love to me.

3.

I know not how that Joseph's tomb
Could solve death's mystery;
I only know a living Christ,
Our immortality.

Amen.
