Gauntlett / C. Alexander 1849 G D7 G C D7 G Once in royal David s city, Em D7 G stood a lowly cattle shed D7 G C G Where a mother laid her Baby, Em D7 G in a manger for His bed C G Am G Mary was that mother mild, C G D7 G Jesus Christ, her little Child. G D7 G C D7 G He came down to earth from heaven, Em D7 G who is God and Lord of all D7 G C G And His shelter was a stable, Em D7 G and His cradle was a stall C G Am G With the poor, and mean, and lowly, C G D7 G lived on earth our Savior holy. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/c/cecil-frances-alexander/279036.html ] G D7 G C D7 G And, through all His wondrous childhood, Em D7 G he would honor and obey D7 G C G Love and watch the lowly maiden, Em D7 G in whose gentle arms He lay C G Am G Christian children all must be, C G D7 G mild, obedient, good as He. G D7 G C D7 G For He is our childhood's pattern; Em D7 G day by day, like us, He grew D7 G C G He was little, weak, and helpless, Em D7 G tears and smiles, like us He knew C G Am G And He cares when we are sad, C G D7 G and he shares when we are glad. G D7 G C D7 G And our eyes at last shall see Him, Em D7 G through His own redeeming love D7 G C G For that Child so dear and gentle, Em D7 G is our Lord in heaven above C G Am G And He leads His children on, C G D7 G to the place where He is gone.
