F Dm Bb C
Jesus, good above all other,
F Bb G7 C
Gentle Child of gentle Mother,
F C Bb A Dm
In a stable born our Redeemer,
Gm F C F
Give us grace to persevere.
F Dm Bb C
Jesus, cradled in a manger,
F Bb G7 C
for us facing every danger,
F C Bb A Dm
living as a homeless stranger,
Gm F C F
make we thee our King most dear.
F Dm Bb C
Jesus, for thy people dying,
F Bb G7 C
risen Master, death defying,
F C Bb A Dm
Lord in heaven, thy grace supplying,
Gm F C F
keep us to thy presence near.
F Dm Bb C
Jesus, who our sorrows bearest,
F Bb G7 C
all our thoughts and hopes thou sharest,
F C Bb A Dm
thou to man the truth declarest;
Gm F C F
help us all thy truth to hear.
F Dm Bb C
Lord, in all our doings guide us;
F Bb G7 C
pride and hate shall never divide us;
F C Bb A Dm
we'll go on with thee beside us,
Gm F C F
and with joy we'll persevere!
