NOWHERE TO LAY HIS HEAD.
They shall see Him in his beauty,
And walk with Him in white.
And walk with Him in white.
To living founts their feet shall tend,
And Christ shall be their guide,
Beloved of God, their rest shall be
In safety by His side.
And Christ shall be their guide,
Beloved of God, their rest shall be
In safety by His side.
He "Had Not Where to Lay His Head."
The conies had their hiding-place,
The wily fox with stealthy tread
A covert found, but Christ, the Lord,
Had not a place to lay his head.

The eagle had an eyrie home,
The blithesome bird its quiet rest,
But not the humblest spot on earth
Was by the Son of God possessed.

Princes and kings had palaces,
With grandeur could adorn each tomb,
For Him who came with love and life,
They had no home, they gave no room.
