G G7 C Am C
Once in royal David's city
C Am Em F C
Stood a lowly cattle shed

Where a mother laid her baby

In a manger for His bed

Mary was that mother mild
F C G C
Jesus Christ her little child
G G7 C Am C C Am Em F C
G G7 C Am C
He came down to earth from heaven
C Am Em F C
Who is God and Lord of all
G G7 C Am C
And His shelter was a stable
C Am Em F C
And His cradle was a stall
F C G7 C
With the poor, oppressed and lowly
F C G C
Lived on earth our Savior holy
G G7 C Am C C Am Em F C (x2)
G G7 C
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
F C G7 C
And He leads His children along
F C G C
To the place that He is gone
