He came in the dead of night, disguised in flesh, to the cattle stall of an innkeeper.
Why would the King do such a thing?
'Such is love's way - to rise, it stoops.' —Robert Browning
"Who is this Child
asleep in a manger?
The heavens are bright
and the stable so cold.
...Have You come to redeem us
little Child in the straw?
Who is this baby?
The Prince of the universe.
A donkey is braying,
the angels are singing.
The prophets did say You would come to redeem the world
little babe in the straw: save us all!
And if we lose sight of Your sweet face
at the birth of grace, at the birth of grace,
then Light of truth, shine like Bethlehem's star,
lead us to where You are.
Show us who You are!
Merciful One,
Lover of every soul,
the Father's own Son—
Emmanuel.
Yes, we believe
You are able to save us.
...Save us all!"
"Isn't it beautiful!
Isn't it marvelous!
The God of the universe, He became one of us.We cry out and then love comes down again—
Hope is found in Him.
Hallelujah!"
Isn't it marvelous!
The God of the universe, He became one of us.We cry out and then love comes down again—
Hope is found in Him.
Hallelujah!"
Merry Christmas!
