Jesus, our Brother, strong and good, Was humbly born in a stable rude, And the friendly beasts around Him stood, Jesus, our Brother, strong and good. 2. I, said the donkey, shaggy and brown, I carried His mother uphill and down, I carried His mother to Bethlehem town; I, said the donkey, shaggy and brown. 3. I, said the cow, all white and red, I gave Him my manger for His bed, I gave Him hay to pillow His head; I, said the cow, all white and red. 4. I, said the sheep with curly horn, I gave Him my wool for His blanket warm, He wore my coat on Christmas morn; I, said the sheep with curly horn. 5. I, said the dove, from the rafters high, I cooed Him to sleep that He should not cry, We cooed Him to sleep, my mate and I; I, said the dove, from the rafters high. 6. Thus all the beasts, by some good spell, In the stable dark were glad to tell Of the gifts they gave Emmanuel, The gifts they gave Emmanuel. Used With Tune: ORIENTIS PARTIBUS

Who hath truly kept His word And the sinners' Help and Friend Now at last to us doth send. 2 What the fathers most desired, What the prophets' heart inspired, What they longed for many a year, Stands fulfilled in glory here. 3 Abram's promised great Reward, Zion's Helper, Jacob's Lord-- Him of twofold race behold-- Truly came, as long foretold. 4 Welcome, 0 my Savior, now! Hail! My Portion, Lord, art Thou. Here, too, in my heart, I pray, Oh, prepare Thyself a way! 5 King of Glory, enter in; Cleanse it from the filth of sin, As Thou hast so often done; It belongs to Thee alone. 6 As Thy coming was in peace, Quiet, full of gentleness, Let the same mind dwell in me That was ever found in Thee. 7 Comfort, comfort Thou my heart, Thou my Strength and Refuge art. I am weak, and cunningly Satan lays his snares for me. 8 Bruise for me the Serpent's head, That, set free from doubt and dread, I may cleave to Thee in faith, Safely kept through life and death, 9 And when Thou dost come again As a glorious King to reign, I with joy may see Thy face, Freely ransomed by Thy grace.
