Once in Royal David's City
Once in royal David's city Stood a lowly cattle-shed Where a mother laid her baby In a manger for His bedMary was that mother mild Jesus Christ her little childHe came down to earth from heavenWho is God and Lord of allAnd His shelter was a stableAnd His cradle was a stallWith the poor, and mean, and lowlyLived on earth our Savior holyJesus is our childhood's patternDay by day like us He grewHe was little, weak, and helplessTears and smiles, like us, He knewAnd He feeleth for our sadnessAnd He shareth in our gladness And our eyes at last shall see HimThrough His own redeeming love For that Child so dear and gentle Is our Lord in heav'n above And He leads His children on To the place where He is gone
