Once in Bethlehem of Judah,
Far away across the sea,
There was laid a little baby
On a virgin mother’s knee.
Refrain:
O Savior, gentle Savior,
Hear Thy loving children sing,
The God of our salvation,
The child that is a king.
It was not a stately palace
Where that little baby lay,
With His servants to attend Him,
And with guards to keep the way.
Refrain
But the oxen stood around Him,
In a stable low and dim;
In the world He had created
There was not a room for Him.
Refrain
For He left His Father’s glory,
And the golden halls above,
And He took our human nature,
In the greatness of His love.
Refrain
Of His infinite compassion,
He can feel our want and woe;
For He suffered, He was tempted,
When He lived our life below.
Refrain
Still He stands and pleads in Heaven,
For us, weak and sin-defiled;
God, who is a man for ever,
Jesus, who was once a child.
Refrain
