For the home, the church, the school,
Come in the gold­en prime
Clothes Him­self with flesh and blood,
Yield to His re­sist­less pow­er.
Thou art not here for ease, or sin,
What Christ, true Man, di­vine­ly wrought,
Worship God for gift so great;
To us in mor­tal weak­ness shown,
And in grace and meek­ness
The life and the health
All like Thee, O bless­èd Je­sus,
Thou Christ­mas Babe, we sing of Thee.
And I trust and hope most ful­ly
Lo! His God­head bursts the pri­son,
In child­hood’s win­some page,
The bur­den of a song.
Of fear­less for­ti­tude,
With them Thy love to own,
Let Je­sus save you.
To bear all life’s bur­dens, and Christ’s law ful­fill.

In a land the peo­ple rule.
Not when the noon of care
end
Thinking that the world’s vain toy
Tho’ pas­sion’s fires are in thy soul,
They wrote, as God in­spired, in words
Made His cross our best es­tate!
Eternal, co-eter­nal Son!
Sharing hu­man weak­ness,
And child­hood and youth;
In the beau­ty of Thy spot­less pur­ity.
To learn what men of old have taught,
And each thought and deed un­ru­ly
Vanquishing our mi­se­ry.
In fee­ble­ness and age,
And age, with fur­rowed brow;
With cra­ven mul­ti­tude.
Be Thine, and Thine alone.
Jesus will save you;
And saying, Oh, come in the noon­tide of day;
