[00:00.00] Once in royal David’s City
[00:01.08]
[00:01.73] 1. Once in royal David's city
[00:08.48] Stood a lowly cattle shed,
[00:16.55] Where a mother laid her Baby
[00:24.54] In a manger for His bed:
[00:32.84] Mary was that mother mild,
[00:41.05] Jesus Christ her little Child.
[00:51.62] 2. He came down to earth from heaven,
[00:59.19] Who is God and Lord of all,
[01:07.17] And His shelter was a stable,
[01:14.70] And His cradle was a stall;
[01:22.63] With the poor, and mean, and lowly,
[01:29.96] Lived on earth our Savior holy.
[01:37.44] 3. But our eyes in truth should see him
[01:48.08] Through his own redeeming love,
[01:55.91] For that child so dear and gentle
[02:03.42] Is our Lord in heaven above,
[02:11.45] As he leads his children on
[02:19.25] To the place where he is gone.
[02:29.47] Not in that poor lowly stable
[02:36.75] With the oxen standing by
[02:45.50] Shall we se him, but in heaven,
[02:52.15] Set at god’s right hand on high.
[02:59.57] Then like stars his children, crowned,
[03:07.54] All in white, his praise will sound!
[00:00.00] Once in royal David' s City

[00:01.73] 1. Once in royal David' s city
