Lesson 37
He Sent His Son
How could the Father
Tell the world
Of love and tenderness?
He sent His Son,
A newborn babe,
With peace and holiness.
He Sent His Son
How could the Father
Show the world
The pathway we should go?
He sent His Son
To walk with men on earth,
That we may know.
He Sent His Son
How could the Father
Tell the world
Of sacrifice, of death?
He sent His Son
To die for us
And rise with living
breath.
He Sent His Son
What does the Father
Ask of us?
What do the scriptures say?
Have faith, have hope,
Live like His Son,
Help others on their way.
What does He ask?
Live like His Son.
Matthew 1:18-23
Oh, Hush Thee, My Baby
Oh, hush thee, my baby;
A story I’ll tell,
How little Lord Jesus
On earth came to dwell;
How in a far country,
‘way over the sea,
Was born a wee baby,
My dear one, like thee.
Oh, Hush Thee, My Baby
Lullaby baby,
Lullaby dear.
Sleep, little baby;
Have nothing to fear.
Lullaby baby,
Lullaby dear.
Jesus will care for
His little one here.
Luke 2:1-7
When Joseph Went to Bethlehem
When Joseph went
to Bethlehem,
I think he took great care
to place his tools
and close his shop
and leave no shavings there.
He urged the donkey
Forward then,
With Mary on its back,
And carried bread
and goat cheese
in a little linen sack.
When Joseph Went to Bethlehem
I think there at
The busy inn
That he was meek and mild
And awed to be the guardian
Of Mary’s sacred child.
Perhaps all through
The chilly hours
He smoothed the
Swaddling bands,
And Jesus felt
The quiet strength
Of Joseph’s gentle hands.
When Joseph Went to Bethlehem
And close beside
The manger bed,
He dimmed the
Lantern’s light
And held the
Little Jesus close
Upon that holy night.
Luke 2:8-14
Once Within a Lowly Stable
Once within
a lowly stable,
Where the sheep
and oxen lay,
A loving mother
Laid her baby
In a manger
Filled with hay.
Mary was the mother there,
And the Christ that baby fair.
Once Within a Lowly Stable
God sent us
This loving baby
From His home
In Heav’n above,
And He came down
To show all people
How to help
And how to love.
This is why the angels bright
Sang for joy that Christmas
night.
Luke 2:15-20
Away in a Manger
Away in a manger,
no crib for his bed,
The little Lord Jesus
laid down his sweet head;
The stars in the heavens
looked down where he lay,
The little Lord Jesus,
Asleep on the hay.
Away in a Manger
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, the Savior
In a stall!
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, the Lord
Of all!
Away in a Manger
The cattle are lowing,
the poor baby wakes;
But little Lord Jesus,
No crying he makes.
I love thee, Lord Jesus;
Look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle
till morning is nigh.
Away in a Manger
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, the Savior
In a stall!
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, the Lord
Of all!
Away in a Manger
Be near me, Lord Jesus;
I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever,
And love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children
In Thy tender care,
And fit us for heaven,
To live with Thee there.
Away in a Manger
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, the Savior
In a stall!
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, asleep,
Asleep, the Lord
Of all!
Wise men still
Seek Him…
Matthew 2:1-11
Stars Were Gleaming
Stars were gleaming, shepherds
dreaming;
And the night was dark and chill.
Angels’ story rang with glory;
Shepherds heard it on the hill.
Ah, that singing!
Hear it ringing,
Earthward winging,
Christmas bringing!
Hearken!
We can hear it still!
Stars Were Gleaming
See the clearness and the
nearness
Of the blessed Christmas star,
Leading, guiding;
wise men riding
Through the desert
dark and far
Lovely showing,
Shining, growing,
Onward going, gleaming glowing
Leading still our Christmas star!
The Lord is come…
Beautiful Savior
Fair is the sunshine,
Fairer the moonlight
And all the stars
In Heav’n above;
Jesus shines brighter,
Jesus shines purer
And brings to all the world
His love.
Beautiful Savior
Fair are the meadows,
Fairer the woodlands,
Robed in the flowers
Of blooming Spring;
Jesus is fairer,
Jesus is purer.
He makes the sorrowing
spirit sing.
Beautiful Savior
Beautiful Savior!
Lord of the nations!
Son of God
And Son of Man!
Thee will I honor,
Praise, and give glory,
Give praise and
glory evermore!
Evermore!
