Text and melody

Every year comes the Christ Child on the low ground, where we are humans. Returns with his blessing one in each house, goes on all the paths one with us in and out. Also stands by my side silent and unrecognized, that it faithfully guide me to the dear hand. Tell the people all, that a father is, she was pleased to they will not forget.
