God doth His own in safe­ty keep,
Tidings brought by hum­ble shep­herds,
For gift or grace sur­pass­ing this:

God ma­ni­fest­ly seen and heard,
’Tis the Meek and Low­ly, Just and Ho­ly One;
The star that on Is­ra­el shone?

Not soft­est strains can charm mine ears

Wherefore, O Fa­ther, we Thy hum­ble serv­ants
How pre­cious the thought that we all may re­cline,
Yet the Lord of glo­ry,
And pressed with sor­rows and with sins,
Every pray­er to Thee we bring.

be­lov­èd

He giv­eth His be­lov­èd sleep.
Child be­lov­èd, Child ad­ored.
What would we give to our be­loved?
Would you be­lieve, and Je­sus re­ceive,
Worthy, O Lamb of God, art Thou
’Tis the Meek and Low­ly, Just and Ho­ly One;
And where, with His flock, is He gone?
Thou art com­ing once again;
Like Thy be­lov­èd name!
Whom here we now pre­sent to Thee;
All per­fect of­fer­ing, sac­ri­fice im­mor­tal,
On Je­sus’ strong arm, where no tem­pest can harm,
end
This is the spouse of Christ our God,
May Thy will by us be done;
He knows the needs of child­ren,
Lay down thy head up­on the Sav­ior’s breast;
Come Thou to strength­en faith and love and pa­tience;
Opened up life’s fount­ain,
The fest­al day has come;
