C    G7 C     F       G7   C
Once in royal David s ci - ty,
C    G/B Am    Dm    G7  C
Stood a  lowly cat - tle shed
      G7  C    F        G7   C
Where a mother laid her Ba - by,
C    G7  Am     Dm  G7  C
in   a   manger for His bed
F    C/E      Dm     C
Mary was that mother mild,
F     C/E         G7     C
Jesus Christ, her little Child.

C  G7   C       F          G7  C
He came down to earth from heaven,
C   G/B Am     Dm   G7 C
Who is God and Lord of all,
G7      C       F     G7  C
And His shelter was a stable,
C   G7  Am     Dm  G7  C
And His cradle was a stall:
F        C/E       Dm        C
With the poor, and mean, and lowly,
F        C/E       G7      C
Lived on earth our Saviour holy.

C   G7 C      F           G7  C
For He is our childhood's pattern;
C   G/B Am       Dm  G7 C
Day by day, like us, He grew;
G7     C       F         G7  C
He was little, weak, and helpless,
C     G7  Am           Dm G7 C
Tears and smiles, like us He knew;
F      C/E        Dm     C
And He cares when we are sad,
F      C/E         G7     C
And he shares when we are glad.

C   G7  C       F          G7  C
And our eyes at last shall see Him,
C       G/B Am    Dm  G7  C
Through His own redeeming love;
G7       C        F        G7  C
For that Child so dear and gentle,
C  G7  Am      Dm G7  C
Is our Lord in heaven above:
F      C/E       Dm       C
And He leads His children on,
F      C/E         G7     C
To the place where He is gone.
