《Once in Royal David’s City》歌词

[00:00:01] 1. once in royal david's city

[00:00:08] stood a lowly cattle shed,

[00:00:16] where a mother laid her baby

[00:00:24] in a manger for his bed:

[00:00:32] mary was that mother mild,

[00:00:41] jesus christ her little child.

[00:00:51] 2. he came down to earth from heaven,

[00:00:59] who is god and lord of all,

[00:01:07] and his shelter was a stable,

[00:01:14] and his cradle was a stall;

[00:01:22] with the poor, and mean, and lowly,

[00:01:29] lived on earth our savior holy.

[00:01:37] 3. but our eyes in truth should see him

[00:01:48] through his own redeeming love,

[00:01:55] for that child so dear and gentle

[00:02:03] is our lord in heaven above,

[00:02:11] as he leads his children on

[00:02:19] to the place where he is gone.

[00:02:29] not in that poor lowly stable

[00:02:36] with the oxen standing by

[00:02:45] shall we se him, but in heaven,

[00:02:52] set at god’s right hand on high.

[00:02:59] then like stars his children, crowned,

[00:03:07] all in white, his praise will sound!
