195. Who Is He in Yonder Stall?

1. Who is he in yonder stall
at whose feet the shepherds fall?
Who is he in deep distress,
fasting in the wilderness?

[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 the people bless
for his words of gentleness?
Who is he to whom they bring
all the sick and sorrowing? (Refrain)

3 Who is he who stands and weeps
at the grave where Lazarus sleeps?
Who is he the gathering throng
greet with loud triumphant song? (Refrain)

4 Lo! at midnight, who is he
prays in dark Gethsemane?
Who is he on yonder tree
dies in grief and agony? (Refrain)

5 Who is he who from the grave
comes to heal and help and save?
Who is he that from his throne
rules through all the world alone? (Refrain)
