Gentle Mary Laid Her Child
Author: Joseph S. Cook Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 48 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:16 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 Savior?
Ask the saved of every race who have found his favor.
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!

Venid, Pastorcillos
Author: Francisco Martínez de la Rosa, s. 19 Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 40 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:4-20 First Line: Venid, pastorcillos, venid a adorar Lyrics: 1 Venid, pastorcillos, venid a adorar
Al Rey de los cielos que nace en Judá.
Sin ricas ofrendas podemos llegar,
Que el Niño prefiere la fe y la bondad.
2 Un rústico techo abrigo le da;
Por cuna un pesebre, por templo un portal;
En lecho de pajas incógnito está
Quien quiso a los astros su gloria prestar.
3 Hermoso lucero le vino a anunciar,
Y magos de oriente buscándole van;
Delante se postran del Rey de Judá,
De incienso, oro y mirra tributo le dan. Topics: Advenimiento; Advent Used With Tune: HIDING IN THEE

Behold, the great creator makes

himself a house of clay,
in human flesh, our form he takes
which he will bear alway.
2 Hark, how the wise eternal Word
as a weak infant cries!
In form of servant is the Lord,
and God in cradle lies.
3 This wonder all the world amazed,
it shook the starry frame;
the hosts of heaven stood to gaze,
and bless the Saviour's name.
4 Glad shepherds ran to view this sight;
a choir of angels sings,
and eastern sages with delight
adore this King of kings.
5 Join then, all hearts that are not stone,
to sing with choirs above
and celebrate this Holy One,
the God of peace and love. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnate - Christmas and Epiphany; Christian Year Season of Epiphany Used With Tune: DUNLAP'S CREEK

Gentle shepherd now, advise.
Lead me to my Master's manger,
show me where my Savior lies.
O Most Mighty! O Most Holy!
Far beyond the seraph's thought,
art thou then so weak and lowly
as unheeded prophets taught?
2 O the magnitude of meekness!
Worth from worth immortal sprung;
O the strength of infant weakness,
if eternal is so young!
God all bounteous, all creative,
whom no ills from good dissuade,
is incarnate, and a native
of the very world he made. Topics: Hymns and Spiritual Songs Advent and Christmas Used With Tune: MARIPOSA

Woman in the Night
Author: Brian Wren, 1936- Meter: 5.5.5.5 D Appears in 10 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:1-20 Lyrics: 1 Woman in the night,
spent from giving birth,
guard our precious light;
peace is on the earth.
Woman in the crowd,
creeping up behind,
touching is allowed:
seek and you will find!
Refrain:
Come and join the song,
women, children, men.
Jesus makes us free to live again!
2 Woman at the well,
question the Messiah;
find your friends and tell:
drink your heart's desire!
Woman at the feast,
let the righteous stare;
come and go in peace;
love him with your hair! [Refrain]
3 Woman in the house,
nurtured to be meek,
leave your second place,
listen, think and speak!
Women on the road,
from your sickness freed,
witness and provide,
joining word and deed: [Refrain]
4 Women on the hill,
stand when men have fled;
Christ needs loving still,
though your hope is dead.
Women in the dawn,
care and spices bring,
earliest to mourn,
earliest to sing! [Refrain] Used With Tune: NEW DISCIPLES
