When Je­sus laid His crown aside,
start
The thorn tree had a mind to Him,
Since Je­sus came to stay.
O chant His praise aloud tod­ay,
With us to dwell.
Ever now as it was then.
Glory to God, good-will to men.
A king, He left for us His Fa­ther’s throne;
A man­ger His cra­dle, so poor was He then.
The joy­ful news keep ring­ing;
The bless­èd Je­sus came.

He came

When on the cross He bled and died,
He came serving, not to be served, but to serve.
Out of the woods my mas­ter came
I had my doubts and fears,
He came to wash away our sin,
With shel­tering wings out­spread,
Born and cra­dled in a stall:
His good­ness, truth and grace:
A man of sor­rows and of grief—
On earth though a strang­er, in Heav’n He was known.
While shep­herds heard sweet sing­ing.
To weep and bleed and die,
