Jesus Christ Is Born #443



Jesus Christ Is Born

Little baby Jesus rests
in a wooden manger.
All the world in Him is blessed,
free from harm and danger.
God has come to earth as man,
Life for death exchanger,
crucified to fill His plan,
Jesus Christ is born!
Jesus Christ is born!

Star of Bethlehem that shines
o'er the Mother's keeping
of the Promised One, Divine,
woos the Babe to sleeping.
O'er the fields, the shepherds run,
ox and sheep are leaping,
Angels call to everyone,
Jesus Christ is born!
Jesus Christ is born!

Wise men come from far away,
bask the Babe in presents.
Mary ponders as she prays,
marvels at His essence,
welcomes all to pass their way,
kings and queens and peasants,
welcomes all who pass today,
Jesus Christ is born!
Jesus Christ is born!

Simeon does prophesy,
says he sees his Savior.
Peace and Joy are multiplied,
Jesus grows in favor,
reaches people far and wide,
teaches good behavior;
All is well where Love resides,
Jesus Christ is born!
Jesus Christ is born!
