Once in royal David's city[00:00:02]
Stood a lowly cattle shed[00:00:09]
Where a mother laid her baby[00:00:17]
In a manger for his bed[00:00:24]
Mary was that mother mild[00:00:31]
Jesus christ her little child[00:00:39]
He came down to earth from heaven[00:00:49]
Who is god and lord of all[00:00:57]
And his shelter was a stable[00:01:04]
And his cradle was a stall[00:01:12]
With the poor and meek and lowly[00:01:21]
Lived on earth our savior holy[00:01:29]
And through all[00:01:39]
His wondrous childhood[00:01:42]
He would honor and obey[00:01:47]
Love and watch the lowly mother[00:01:56]
In whose gentle arms he lay[00:02:04]
Christian children all should be[00:02:12]
Mild obedient good as he[00:02:20]
For he is our child-hood's pattern[00:02:31]
Day by day like us he grew[00:02:39]
He was little weak and helpless[00:02:47]
Tears and smiles like us he knew[00:02:55]
And he feeleth for our sadness[00:03:04]
And he shareth in our gladness[00:03:12]
And our eyes at last shall see him[00:03:23]
Through his own redeeming love[00:03:31]
For that child so dear and gentle[00:03:39]
Is our lord in heaven above[00:03:47]
And he leads his children on[00:03:56]
To the place where he is gone[00:04:04]
Not in that poor lowly stable[00:04:14]
With the oxen standing by[00:04:22]
We shall see him but in heaven[00:04:31]
Set at god's right hand on high[00:04:38]
When like stars[00:04:46]
His children crowned[00:04:50]
All in white shall be around[00:04:55]
