Hymn Context Compare
Thou, in glo­ry un­con­fined,
And wor­ship at His feet.
For Beth­le­hem is ve­ry far
Such was His low­ly lot, born in the world!
The oth­er owns his guilt and shame.
And them in love to me Thou claim’st:
When the in­fant Christ was born;
Pass me not, O gen­tle Sav­ior,
Forget Thou not the suf­fer­ing poor,
And all my life and act­ions prove
These hands of mine I bring Thee, Lord,
From ma­ny a ra­di­ant face,
But in a dif­fer­ent chan­nel go,
Where an­gels cease­less praise,
Be in Thy Spir­it, Lord,

hum­ble

With the poor of hum­ble mind.
The wise be­held Thee there,
’Tis Christ­mas Day! ’Tis Christ­mas Day!
Pride ill be­comes you when hum­ble was Christ!
And cries for grace with lift­ed hands;
Dear Je­sus, born to bleed for me,
Child be­lov­èd, Child ad­ored,
While on oth­ers Thou art call­ing,
Their foes Thou dost be­hold,
end
These feet, oh guide them in the paths
The per­fume of the place.
The swift, not al­ways, in the race,
And lead us in His ways.
That trem­bles at Thy Word.
