Once in Royal David's City Lyrics

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

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, distressed and lonely

Lived on earth our Savior holy

And at last, our eyes shall see Him

Through His own redeeming love

For that child so dear and gentle

Is our Lord in heaven above

Who was, and is, and is to come

On that day, we'll sing one song

Holy, holy

Jesus Christ, Lord of all

Holy, holy

Jesus Christ, Lord of all

Holy, holy

Jesus Christ, Lord of all

Holy, holy

Jesus Christ, Lord of all

Jesus Christ, Lord of all

Jesus Christ, Lord of all
