Once in royal David's city

Author: Mrs. Cecil Frances Alexander, 1823-1895 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #608 (1917) Topics: Christmas Hymns Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city Stood a lowly cattle-shed, Where a mother laid her baby In a manger for His bed; Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little Child. 2 And through all His wondrous childhood, He would honour and obey, Love and watch the lowly mother In whose gentle arms He lay: Christian children all should be Mild, obedient, good as He. 3 For He is our childhood's pattern, Day by day like us He grew, He was little, weak and helpless, Tears and smile, like us He knew; And He feeleth for our sadness, And He shareth in our gladness. 4 Not in that poor lowly stable, With the oxen standing by, We shall see Him; but in heaven, Set at God's right hand on high; When like stars His children crowned All in white shall wait around.

Shepherds, rejoice, lift up your eyes

O may we lose our useless tongues When they forget to praise! 8 Glory to God that reigns above, That pitied us forlorn, We join to sing our Maker's love, For there's a Saviour born.
