Verse 1:
E
Once in royal David’s city,
G#m
Stood a lowly cattle shed,
E
Where a mother laid her baby,
G#m
In a manger for His bed:
A     E        B      E
Mary was that mother mild,
A       E          B       E
Jesus Christ, her little child.

Verse 2:
E
He came down to earth from heaven,
G#m
Who is God and Lord of all,
E
And His shelter was a stable,
G#m
And His cradle was a stall:
A         E         B         E
With the poor, and meek, and lowly,
A         E         B       E
Lived on earth our Saviour holy.

Verse 3:
N.C.
And our eyes at last shall see Him,
N.C.
Through His own redeeming love;
N.C.
For that Child so dear and gentle,
N.C.
Is our Lord in heaven above:
N.C.
And He leads His children on,
                          E
To the place where He is gone.
