Once in royal David’s city

Author: Cecil F. Alexander (1818-1895) Hymnal: HTC #67 (1987) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Person Name: Cecil F. Alexander (1818-1895) Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David’s city stood a lowly cattle shed, where a mother laid her baby in a manger for his bed: Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ, her little child. 2 He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all; and his shelter was a stable, and his cradle was a stall: with the poor and meek and lowly lived on earth our saviour holy. 3 And through all his wondrous childhood he would honour and obey, love and watch the gentle mother in whose tender arms he lay: Christian children all should be kind, obedient,good as he. 4 For he is our childhood’s pattern: day by day like us he grew; he was little, weak and helpless; tears and smiles like us he knew: and he feels for all our sadness, and he shares in all our gladness. 5 And our eyes at last shall see him, through his own redeeming love; for that child, so dear and gentle, is our Lord in heaven above: and he leads his children on to the place where he has gone. 6 Not in that poor lowly stable with the oxen standing by, we shall see him, but in heaven, set at God’s right hand on high; there his children gather round, bright like stars, with glory crowned.

Alexander (1818-1895) Lyrics: 1 Jesus calls us! — in the tumult of our life's wild, restless sea; day by day his voice re-echoes saying, 'Christian, follow me!' 2 As of old, apostles heard it by the Galilean lake, turned from home and toil and kindred, leaving all for his dear sake. 3 Jesus calls us — from the worship of the vain world's golden store, from each rival that would claim us, saying, 'Christian, love me more!' 4 In our joys and in our sorrows, days of toil and hours of ease, still he calls, in cares and pleasures, 'Christian, love me more than these!' 5 Jesus calls us! — by your mercies, Saviour, make us hear your call, give to you our heart's obedience, serve and love you best of all.

There is a green hill far away

Author: Cecil F. Alexander (1818-1895) Hymnal: HTC #148 (1987) Person Name: Cecil F. Alexander (1818-1895) Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away outside a city wall, where our dear Lord was crucified, who died to save us all. 2 We may not know, we cannot tell what pains he had to bear, but we believe it was for us he hung and suffered there. 3 He died that we might be forgiven, he died to make us good; that we might go at last to heaven, saved by his precious blood. 4 There was no other good enough to pay the price of sin; he, only, could unlock the gate of heaven — and let us in. 5 Lord Jesus, dearly your have loved; and we must love you too, and trust in your redeeming blood and learn to follow you.
