Once in Royal David's City

Author: Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: WHAV1989 #77 (1989) 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 For he is our childhood's pattern; day by day like us he grew; he was little, weak, and helpless; tears and smiles like us he knew: and he feels for all our sadness, and he shares in all our gladness. 4 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 on to the place where he has gone. 5 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: there his children gather round bright like stars, with glory crowned.
