-1 -2* 3 3 3-2* 3-3 -3 3
Once in roy-al Da-vids cit-y,
3 -4 -5 -4 -4-3 3-2* 3
Stood a low-ly cat- tle shed,
-1 -2* 3 3 3-2* 3-3 -3 3
Where a moth-er laid her Ba-by,
3 -4 -5 3 -4-3 3-2* 3
In a man-ger for His bed:
6 6 -5 3 4 4 -4
Ma-ry was that moth-er mild,
6 6 -5 -4 -4-3 3-2* 3
Je-sus Christ, her lit-tle Child.
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:
And He leads His children on,
To the place where He is gone.
