CPWI Hymnal ‎#563

563. Who is he in yonder stall

1 Who is he in yonder stall
at whose feet the shepherds fall?

Refrain:
'Tis the Lord! O wondrous story!
'Tis the Lord! the King of glory!
At his feet we humbly fall;
crown him, crown him Lord of all!

2 Who is he in yonder cot,
bending to his toilsome lot? [Refrain]

3 Who is he in deep distress,
fasting in the wilderness? [Refrain]

4 Who is he who stands and weeps
at the grave where Lazarus sleeps? [Refrain]

5 Lo, at midnight, who is he
prays in dark Gethsemane? [Refrain]

6 Who is he, in Calvary's throes,
asks for blessings on his foes? [Refrain]

7 Who is he that from the grave
comes to heal and help and save? [Refrain]

8 Who is he that from his throne
rules through all the worlds alone? [Refrain]
