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 to whom they bring
All the sick and sorrowing?
Who is He that stands and weeps
At the grave where Lazarus sleeps?
Who is He on yonder tree
Dies in pain and agony?
Who is He who from the grave
Comes to rescue, help and save?
Who is He who from His throne
Sends the Spirit to His own?
Who is He who comes again,
Judge of angels and of men?
