Away in a Manger

Hymnal: HTLG2017 #111 (2017) Meter: 11.11.11.11 First Line: Away in a manger, no crib for a bed Lyrics: 1 Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, the little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head; the stars in the heavens looked down where He lay, the little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay. 2 The cattle are lowing, the Baby awakes, but little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes. I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky and stay by my side until morning is nigh. 3 Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask Thee to stay close by me forever, and love me, I pray. Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care, and fit us for heaven, to live with Thee there. Topics: Jesus Christ Incarnation Languages: English Tune Title: CRADLE SONG

What Child Is This

Author: William Chatterton Dix Hymnal: HTLG2017 #112 (2017) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.8.6.7 First Line: What Child is this who, laid to rest Lyrics: 1 What Child is this who, laid to rest, on Mary's lap is sleeping? Whom angels greet with anthems sweet while shepherds watch are keeping? This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing: haste, haste to bring Him laud, the Babe, the Son of Mary. 2 Why lies He in such low estate where ox and lamb are feeding? Good Christian, fear: for sinners here the silent Word is pleading. Nails, spear, shall pierce Him through; the cross be borne for me, for you. Hail, hail, the Word made flesh, the Babe, the Son of Mary. 3 So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh; come, peasant, king, to own Him. The King of kings salvation brings; let loving hearts enthrone Him. Raise, raise the song on high. The virgin sings her lullaby. Joy, joy, for Christ is born, the Babe, the Son of Mary!

O Little Town of Bethlehem

Author: Philipps Brooks Hymnal: HTLG2017 #114 (2017) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie! Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by. Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting light; the hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight. 2 For Christ is born of Mary and, gathered all above, while mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wond'ring love. O morning stars, together proclaim the holy birth, and praises sing to God the King, and peace to men on earth. 3 How silently, how silently, the wondrous gift is giv'n! So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His heav'n. No ear may hear His coming, but in this world of sin, where meek souls will receive Him still, the dear Christ enters in.

Gentle Mary Laid Her Child

Author: Joseph S. Cook Hymnal: HTLG2017 #115 (2017) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Gentle Mary laid her Child lowly in a manger; there He lay, the undefiled, to the world a stranger; such a Babe in such a place, can He be the Savior? Ask the saved of all the race who have found His favor. 2 Angels sang about His birth; wise men sought and found Him; heaven’s star shone brightly forth, glory all around Him; shepherds saw the wondrous sight, heard the angels singing; all the plains were lit that night, all the hills were ringing. 3 Gentle Mary laid her Child lowly in a manger; He is still the undefiled, but no more a stranger; Son of God, of humble birth, beautiful the story; praise His name in all the earth; hail the King of glory!

O Righteous Branch, O Jesse’s Rod, the Son of Man and Son of God, we too will lift our voices: Jesus, Jesus, holy, holy, yet most lowly, come, draw near us; great Emmanuel, come and hear us. 2 Though circled by the hosts on high, He deigned to cast a pitying eye upon His helpless creature. The whole creation’s Head and Lord, by highest seraphim adored, assumed our very nature; Jesus, grant us, through Your merit, to inherit Your salvation. Hear, O hear our supplication! 3 Rejoice, O heav'ns, and earth, reply; with praise, O sinners, fill the sky for this, His incarnation. Incarnate God, put forth Your pow'r; ride on, ride on, great Conqueror, till all know Your salvation. Amen, amen! Alleluia, alleluia! Praise be given evermore by earth and heaven.

Once in Royal David's City

Author: Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: HTLG2017 #120 (2017) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 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 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, and meek, and lowly, lived on earth our Savior holy. 3 And our eyes at last shall see Him, through 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. 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.
