Once in royal David's City...

Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary. 

ONCE in royal David's City, 
Stood a lowly cattle shed, 
Where a mother laid her Baby, 
In a manger for His bed. 
Mary was that mother mild, 
JESUS CHRIST her little Child. 

He came down to earth from Heaven, 
Who is GOD and LORD of all, 
And His shelter was a stable, 
And His cradle was a stall; 
With the poor, and mean, and lowly 
Lived on earth our SAVIOR Holy. 

And through all His wondrous childhood, 
He would honor and obey, 
Love and watch the lowly maiden 
In whose gentle arms He lay. 
Christian children all must be 
Mild, obedient, good 'as He.  

For He is our childhood's Pattern, 
Day by day like us He grew, 
He was little, weak, and helpless, 
Tears and smiles like us He knew; 
And He feeleth for our sadness, 
And He shareth in our gladness. 

And our eyes at last shall see Him, 
Through His Own redeeming love, 
For that Child so dear and gentle 
Is our LORD in Heaven above; 
And He leads His children on 
To the place where He is gone. 

Not in that poor lowly stable, 
With the oxen standing by, 
We shall see Him ; but in Heaven, 
Set at GOD'S right Hand on high; 
When like stars His children crowned, 
All in white, shall wait around.

Maker of Heaven and Earth. 

ALL things bright and beautiful, 
All creatures great and small, 
All things wise and wonderful, 
The LORD GOD made them all. 

Each little flower that opens, 
Each little bird that sings, 
He made their glowing colors, 
He made their tiny wings. 

The rich man in his castle, 
The poor man at his gate, 
GOD made them, high or lowly, 
And ordered their estate. 

The purple-headed mountain, 
The river running by, 
The sunset, and the morning, 
That brighten up the sky ; 

The cold wind in the winter, 
The pleasant summer sun, 
The ripe fruits in the garden, 
He made them every one. 

The tall trees in the greenwood, 
The meadows where we play, 
The rushes by the water, 
We gather every day ; 

He gave us eyes to see them, 
And lips that we might tell, 
How great is GOD Almighty, 
Who has made all things well.

We were only little babies...

HOLY BAPTISM. 

WE were only little babies, 
Knowing neither good nor harm, 
When the Priest of GOD Most Holy 
Took us gently in his arm. 

And he sprinkled our young faces 
With the water clear and bright, 
And he signed our SAVIOR'S token 
On our little foreheads white. 

In the Name of GOD the FATHER, 
Of the SON, and HOLY GHOST, 
He baptized us then, and made us 
Soldiers in our Master's host. 

Then we promised by our sureties, 
Vowing for us solemnly, 
Manfully to fight His battles, 
Gentle, kind, and good to be. 

At our posts beneath His banner, 
We must watch, and strive, and pray, 
By the Grace of GOD within us 
Growing better every day. 

For the little flowers grow brightly 
In the early morning dew, 
And when GOD'S good SPIRIT feeds them 
Children's hearts grow holy too. 

We must keep our early promise, 
We must guard what He has given,* 
Till the LORD, Who loved and saved us, 
Take us to our home in Heaven.

On the dark hill's western side...

Description of Coloring Page: Children's hymn illustrated, siblings play on the lawn, cottages and clouds in the background, words below
EVENING HYMN. 

ON the dark hill's western side 
The last purple gleam has died, 
Twilight to one solemn hue 
Changes all, both green and blue. 

In the fold and in the nest, 
Birds and lambs are gone to rest ; 
Labor's weary task is o'er, 
Closely shut the cottage door. 

SAVIOR, ere in sweet repose 
I my weary eyelids close, 
While my mother through the gloom 
Singeth from the outer room;  

While across the curtain white, 
With a dim uncertain light, 
On the floor the faint stars shine, 
Let my latest thought be Thine. 

'Twas a starry night of old, 
When rejoicing Angels told 
The poor shepherds of Thy birth, 
GOD become a Child on earth. 

Soft and quiet is the bed 
Where I lay my little head ; 
Thou hadst but a manger bare, 
Rugged straw for pillow fair. 

SAVIOR, 'twas to win me grace 
Thou didst stoop to that poor place, 
Loving with a perfect love 
Child, and man, and GOD above. 

Hear me as alone I lie, 
Plead for me with GOD on high; 
All that stained my soul to-day 
Wash it in Thy blood away. 

If my slumbers broken be, 
Waking let me think of Thee: 
Darkness cannot make me fear, 
If I feel that Thou art near. 

Happy now I turn to sleep; 
Thou wilt watch around me keep; 
Him no danger e'er can harm 
Who lies cradled on Thine arm.

Now the dreary night is done...

Description of Coloring Page: This coloring page based upon a old children's hymn, words below
MORNING HYMN. 

NOW the dreary night is done, 
Comes again the glorious sun, 
Crimson clouds, and silver white, 
Wait upon his breaking light. 

Glistening in the garden beds, 
Flowers lift up their dewy heads, 
And the shrill cock claps his wings, 
And the merry lark upsprings. 

When the eastern sky is red, 
I, too, lift my little head. 
When the lark sings loud and gay, 
I, too, rise to praise and pray. 

SAVIOR, to Thy cottage home 
Once the daylight used to come ; 
Thou hast ofttimes seen it break 
Brightly o'er that eastern lake. 

Child of Mary, Thou dost know, 
What of danger, joy, or woe, 
Shall to-day my portion be, 
Let me meet it all in Thee.  
Thou wast meek and undefiled, 
Make me holy, too, and mild ; 
Thou didst foil the tempter's power, 
Help me in temptation's hour. 

Thou didst love Thy mother here, 
Make me gentle, kind and dear ; 
Thou wast subject to her word, 
Teach me to obey, O LORD. 

Fretful feelings, passion, pride, 
Never did with Thee abide ; 
Make me watch myself to-day, 
That they lead me not astray. 

With Thee, LORD, I would arise, 
To Thee look with opening eyes, 
All the day be at Thy side, 
SAVIOR, PATTERN, KING, and GUIDE.

The Last Supper Window at Chartres Cathedral

Description of Coloring Page: stained glass window coloring page, Chartres Cathedral window, The Last Supper or Passover

"While the Israelites were still in the land of Egypt, the LORD gave the following instructions to Moses and Aaron: From now on, this month will be the first month of the year for you. Announce to the whole community of Israel that on the tenth day of this month each family must choose a lamb or a young goat for a sacrifice, one animal for each household. If a family is too small to eat a whole animal, let them share with another family in the neighborhood. Divide the animal according to the size of each family and how much they can eat. The animal you select must be a one-year-old male, either a sheep or a goat, with no defects. Take special care of this chosen animal until the evening of the fourteenth day of this first month. Then the whole assembly of the community of Israel must slaughter their lamb or young goat at twilight. They are to take some of the blood and smear it on the sides and top of the door frames of the houses where they eat the animal. That same night they must roast the meat over a fire and eat it along with bitter salad greens and bread made without yeast. Do not eat any of the meat raw or boiled in water. The whole animal--including the head, legs, and internal organs--must be roasted over a fire. Do not leave any of it until the next morning. Burn whatever is not eaten before morning. These are your instructions for eating this meal: Be fully dressed, wear your sandals, and carry your walking stick in your hand. Eat the meal with urgency, for this is the LORD's Passover. On that night I will pass through the land of Egypt and strike down every firstborn son and firstborn male animal in the land of Egypt. I will execute judgment against all the gods of Egypt, for I am the LORD! But the blood on your doorposts will serve as a sign, marking the houses where you are staying. When I see the blood, I will pass over you. This plague of death will not touch you when I strike the land of Egypt.This is a day to remember. Each year, from generation to generation, you must celebrate it as a special festival to the LORD. This is a law for all time." Exodus 12:1-14 New Living Translation

"As they were eating, Jesus took some bread and blessed it. Then he broke it in pieces and gave it to the disciples, saying, "Take this and eat it, for this is my body. And he took a cup of wine and gave thanks to God for it. He gave it to them and said, "Each of you drink from it, for this is my blood, which confirms the covenant between God and his people. It is poured out as a sacrifice to forgive the sins of many. Mark my words--I will not drink wine again until the day I drink it new with you in my Father's Kingdom. Then they sang a hymn and went out to the Mount of Olives. On the way, Jesus told them, "Tonight all of you will desert me. For the Scriptures say, 'God will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.'" Matthew 26:26-31 New Living Translation
