Gentle Mary Laid Her Child

Author: Joseph Simpson Cook Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 54 hymnals Topics: Biblical Narrative Lyrics: 1 Gentle Mary laid her child lowly in a manger; there he lay, the undefiled, to the world a stranger. Such a Babe in such a place, can he be the Saviour? Ask the saved of all the race who have found his favour. 2 Angels sang about his birth, wise Men sought and found him; heaven’s star shone brightly forth, glory all around him. Shepherds saw the wondrous sight, heard the angels singing; all the plains were lit that night, all the hills were ringing. 3 Gentle Mary laid her child lowly in a manger; he is still the undefiled, but no more a stranger. Son of God of humble birth, beautiful the story; praise his name in all the earth; hail the King of glory! Used With Tune: GENTLE MARY

Pharaoh's tyrant power reduced to naught: chains of serfdom cut off, and feet led dry across the sea. 3 Long ago, LORD, you brought your people through the desert years, kept a constant guard, smote each king who sought to block their way, gave them land to settle, a heritage for Israel. 4 Praise to you, O God, you have called to mind our low estate, cut down every foe so that we hold our heads up high. In your tender mercy, you feed all flesh the food of life. Scripture: Psalm 136 Used With Tune: MAMAYUG AKUN
