Away in a Manger

Author: Anonymous; John T. McFarland, 1851-1913 Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 542 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head. The stars in the bright sky 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 you, Lord Jesus: look down from the sky, And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh. 3 Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask you to stay Close by me forever, and love me, I pray. Bless all the dear children in your tender care, And fit us for heaven to live with you there. Scripture: Luke 2:7 Used With Tune: MUELLER

Venid, pastorcillos

Author: Francisco Martínez de la Rosa Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 40 hymnals First Line: Venid, pastorcillos, venid a adorar Lyrics: 1 Venid, pastorcillos, venid a adorar al Rey de los cielos que nace en Judá. Sin ricas ofrendas podemos llegar, que el niño prefiere la fe y la bondad. 2 Un rústico techo abrigo le da; por cuna un pesebre, por templo un portal; en lecho de pajas incógnito está quien quiso a los astros su gloria prestar. 3 Hermoso lucero le vino a anunciar, y magos de Oriente buscándole van; delante se postran del Rey de Judá, de incienso, oro y mirra tributo le dan. 4 Con alma y con vayamos allá, que Dios, niño y pobre, nos recibirá. Los brazos nos tiende con grato ademán: "Venid," nos repite su voz celestial. Topics: Navidad; Navidad Scripture: Matthew 2:11 Used With Tune: MUELLER

I met the Good Shepherd, just now on the plain, As homeward He carried His lost one again; I marveled how gently His burden He bore; And as He passed by me, I knelt to adore. 2. O Shepherd, Good Shepherd, Thy wounds they are deep; The wolves have sore hurt Thee in saving Thy sheep. Thy raiment all over with crimson is dyed; And what is this wound they have made in Thy side? 3. O Shepherd, Good Shepherd, and is it for me This grievous affliction has fallen on Thee? Thy wounds make me love Thee, my heart shall be Thine; With Thee I will journey, my Shepherd divine. Used With Tune: MUELLER Text Sources: Masque of Mary, and Other Poems, 1858

To Us, To Us, A Child Is Born

Author: Susanna Harrison, 1752-1784 Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: To us, to us a child is born Lyrics: 1 To us, to us a child is born, Arise and hail the glorious morn; Come, let us praise the God of Heav’n, To us, to us a son is giv’n! 2 To us, the guilty race of man, He comes! An infant of a span! O let us sing His wondrous love, Which brings salvation from above. 3 He comes, all potent, to sustain In government an endless name; Sinners, rejoice and spread His fame, In Counsel Wonderful His name. 4 The mighty God—the Prince of Peace, Whose kingdom never shall decrease; The Everlasting Father’s come— How strange! A servant—from the womb! 5 With angels let our souls adore The virgin’s son—The Prince of Power; Jesus! with praise inspire our tongues, And then accept our grateful songs. 6 All praise to God for grace divine! The hymn let saints and seraphs join; Let Heaven with hallelujahs ring While we adore our new-born king. Used With Tune: MUELLER Text Sources: Songs in the Night (4th ed.)
