On the blood­stained field of strife!
Their act­ions with their words com­pare,
Or decks the li­ly fair,
And this His fes­tal day,
O Thou great friend to all the sons of men,
With a sun­shine and wel­come for all.
Looks down from Heav’n with pi­ty­ing eye,
In out­skirts of Thy king­doms vast
These hands of mine I bring Thee, Lord,
Just sim­ple faith in Christ will save
Brother, your Lord lived for you
Brother, your Lord lived for you
But safe­ly will He tend and keep
There shall you find the heav­en­ly Babe
He speaks in tones so gen­tle,
Jesus, true and liv­ing bread!
The Lord of an­gels comes from high,
And glo­ri­fies with du­ty
Bending to hear me from on high;

hum­blest

And ha­loes mer­cy’s deeds;
Jesus bought eter­nal life.
Their per­fect no­thing­ness de­clare:
But God has placed it there.
That we sin­cere­ly pay.
Sin to re­buke, to break the cap­tive’s chain,
Where the feet of the Hol­ie­st have trod,
From Him the stars de­rived their birth;
Set me the low­li­est task Thou hast,
These feet, oh guide them in the paths
There’s none so poor, and none so sick,
And for you He will­ing­ly died
And for you He will­ing­ly died
His foes a sea­son here
All mean­ly wrapped in swad­dling clothes
In sec­ret of His pre­sence
Here in lov­ing rev­er­ence bow;
Good Shep­herd, for His sheep to die:
Thou rob­est in Thy splen­dor
Every low whis­per finds Him nigh.
