The world was crying
out for Love.
Stretching out yearning
hands to God
above.
The whole world was
so lost, before
He came.
Christ was born
without worldly
acclaim.
An angel came to a
virgin, to announce
that she would conceive
and bear
a Son.
The One she
would bear would be
Gods'
holy One.
Mary surrendered to
Gods will."Behold, I am
the handmaiden of
the Lord."
When Jesus was born
angels, shepherds and magi
came
to adore.
Frankincense, gold and
Myrrh were the gifts
the Magi
brought,
to honor the little
King they had
sought.
Angels told shepherds
of the holy birth
of this baby
sent from heaven
to earth.
How wonderful!Angels
singing "Glory
to God!Peace
on earth!
Good will to men!"
Jesus came to save us
from our sins!
A holy light shone
on all
around.
All was hushed.
Not a sound.
Mary sang her
lullabye."Sleep,little
Jesus,sleep!"
Surrounded by bleeting
sheep, little Jesus
fell fast
asleep.
Asleep in a manger
for a
bed.
No where else to
lay His
head.
Many didn't recognize
Him when He came.
No wealth. no riches.
No earthly fame.
They couldn't see
that what He came to do
was to be a Savior
for me.For you!
For those who receive Him,
He makes us children
of the
Most
High.
He came because
He heard our
cry.
No longer lost and
without hope on
this earth.
He came to give us
fresh
rebirth!
Thank You, Jesus!
Happy birthday
to You!
Thanks for making
all things in me
new!
