The Lowly Nazarene

Representative Text

1 Jesus Knows earth’s cares and sorrows,
Through Death’s valley has He been,
At the bench He toiled and suffered,
Christ, the “Lowly Nazarene.”

Refrain:
Lord of earth and sky forever,
Christ, the Lord, with pow’r supreme!
Born of woman in a manger,
Once a “Lowly Nazarene.”

2 His great heart will bear our burdens,
On Him you can ever lean,
He knows all our hopes and longings,
Christ, the “Lowly Nazarene.” [Refrain]

3 Comfort gives He to the beggar,
Freely as unto a queen,
For His love indeed is boundless,
Christ, the “Lowly Nazarene.” [Refrain]
