Hymn

Who Is He in Yonder Stall

Metre 7.7.7.7. with refrain

Who is He in yonder stall,

At Whose feet the shepherds fall?

'Tis the Lord, O wondrous story,

'Tis the Lord, the King of Glory,

At His feet we humbly fall,

Crown Him, crown Him Lord of all.

Who is He in yonder cot,

Bending to His toilsome lot?

Who is He in deep distress,

Fasting in the wilderness?

Who is He Who stands and weeps

At the grave where Lazarus sleeps?

Lo, at midnight, who is He

Prays in dark Gethsemane?

Who is He in Calvary's throes

Asks for blessings on His foes?

Who is He that from the grave

Comes to heal, and help, and save?

Who is He that from His throne

Rules the world of life alone?
