about

We could be wrong, but this may be the only Christmas song originally written in Scots Gaelic. It is a lovely song, revealing the awe Mary must have felt knowing the true identity of her son.

lyrics

My love, my treasured one are You, my sweet and lovely Son are You. You are my love, my darling, You; unworthy I of You.

Your mild and gentle eyes proclaim the loving heart with which You came; tender, helpless tiny babe with countless gifts of grace.

King of kings, most holy One, God the Son, eternal One. You are my God and helpless Son, High ruler of mankind.
