ONCE IN ROYAL DAVID’S CITY
VERSE 1
Once in royal
David’s city
Stood a lowly
cattle shed
Where a mother
laid her baby
In a manger
for His bed
Mary was that
mother mild
Jesus Christ
her little child
VERSE 2
He came down
to earth from heaven
Who is God
and Lord of all
And His shelter
was a stable
And His cradle
was a stall
With the poor
and meek and lowly
Lived on earth
our Savior holy
VERSE 3
Jesus is our
childhood’s pattern
Day by day
like us He grew
He was little
weak and helpless
Tears and smiles
like us He knew
And He feeleth
for our sadness
And He shareth
in our gladness
VERSE 4
And our eyes
at last shall see Him
Through His own
redeeming love
For that child
so dear and gentle
Is our Lord
in heaven above
And He leads
His children on
To the place
where He has gone
Tag
And He leads
His children on
To the place
where He has gone
VERSE 1
In tenderness
He sought me
Weary and sick with sin
And on His shoulders
brought me
Back to His fold again
While angels in
His presence sang
Until the courts
of heaven rang
CHORUS
Oh-o-oh the love
that sought me
Oh-o-oh the blood
that bought me
Oh the grace that brought me
to the fold of God
Grace that brought me
to the fold of God
VERSE 2
He died for me
while I was sinning
Needy and poor and blind
He whispered to assure me
“I’ve found thee
thou art Mine”
I never heard
a sweeter voice
It made my aching
heart rejoice
CHORUS
Oh-o-oh the love
that sought me
Oh-o-oh the blood
that bought me
Oh the grace that brought me
to the fold of God
Grace that brought me
to the fold of God
VERSE 3
Upon His grace
I’ll daily ponder
And sing anew His praise
With all adoring wonder
His blessings I retrace
It seems as if eternal days
Are far too short
to sing His praise
CHORUS
Oh-o-oh the love
that sought me
Oh-o-oh the blood
that bought me
Oh the grace that brought me
to the fold of God
Grace that brought me
to the fold of God
CHORUS
Oh-o-oh the love
that sought me
Oh-o-oh the blood
that bought me
Oh the grace that brought me
to the fold of God
Grace that brought me
to the fold of God
COME BEHOLD THE WONDROUS MYSTERY
VERSE 1
Come behold the wondrous mystery
In the dawning of the King
He the theme of heaven’s praises
Robed in frail humanity
In our longing, in our darkness
Now the light of life has come
Look to Christ who condescended
Took on flesh to ransom us
VERSE 2
Come behold the wondrous mystery
He the perfect Son of Man
In His living, in His suffering
Never trace nor stain of sin
See the true and better Adam
Come to save the Hell-bound man
Christ the great and sure fulfillment
Of the law; In Him we stand
VERSE 3
Come behold the wondrous mystery
Christ the Lord upon the tree
In the stead of ruined sinners
Hangs the Lamb in victory
See the price of our redemption
See the Father’s plan unfold
Bringing many sons to glory
Grace unmeasured, love untold
VERSE 4
Come behold the wondrous mystery
Slain by death the God of life
But no grave could e’er restrain Him
Praise the Lord, He is alive
What a foretaste of deliverance
How unwavering our hope
Christ in power resurrected
As we will be when He comes

Hebrews 4:12-14 – Sam Andres
VERSE 1
Before the throne of God above
I have a strong and perfect plea
A great high Priest whose name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me
My name is graven on His hand
My name is written on His heart
I know that while in heaven He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart
No tongue can bid me thence depart
VERSE 2
When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end to all my sin
Because the sinless Savior died
My sinful soul is counted free
For God the Just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me
To look on Him and pardon me
VERSE 3
Behold Him there, the risen Lamb
My perfect, spotless Righteousness
The great unchangeable I AM
The King of glory and of grace
One with Himself, I cannot die
My soul is purchased by His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high
With Christ my Savior and my God
With Christ my Savior and my God
TAG
One with Himself, I cannot die
My soul is purchased by His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high
With Christ my Savior and my God
With Christ my Savior and my God
