Lyrics

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
 He came down to earth from heaven
 Who is God and Lord of all
 And His shelter was a stable
 And His cradle was a stall
 With the poor, oppressed and wholly
 Lived on earth our Savior holy
 And our eyes
 At last shall see Him
 Through His own redeeming love
 For that child, so dear and gentle
 Is our Lord in heaven above
 And He leads His children along
 To the place where He is gone
