Once In Royal David's City

from Noel by Natalie Kendel

lyrics

Once in Royal David's City
stood a lowly cattle shed
where a mother laid her baby
used a manger for his bed
Prophet's word have come to life
Jesus is the promised child

He came down to Earth from Heaven
He who's God and Lord of life
Felt the tears and joys for humans
Were the poor and lonely strive
He was man and with us dwelled
Jesus, our Immanuel

Just as God has promised Judah
all those many years ago
From the line the David comes a
king who takes Messiah's throne
God he came among his children
kneeling down that he might reach them

And our eyes at last will see him
through his own redeeming love
He who was a child so gentle
is our Lord and our first love
And he leads his children on
to himself, who is their home

Ancient words have come to life
Jesus is the promised child
