Christmas Doxology

 Christmas time a Savior born (sarah)

               Oft times we dismiss through sin and strife

We know by heart the cold, dark morn

               The Incarnate Christ who gave us life.

 

Glad tidings bring far and near (mom)

               Our hope, our joy, our wondrous fear

The lonely manger that kept the child

               Emblaze our Savior so meek and mild


The wintry, dreary Holy Night (joshua)

    A virgin birth - a Son so bright

But we afore, all men forlorn

    Our hope fulfilled, Emmanuel born.


Hallelujah the world now shouts (lolo)

    Israel's Son born in Bethlehem

What, you wonder is this about?

    A priceless Savior, a brilliant Gem.


Snow calmly falling among the trees (steph)

    Hope answered, the Christmas story

And our hearts we pray to appease

    God's Son born to manifest glory


The Joy of Jesus Birth we see (steph2022)

    A calmness of the night

Our glorious Savior nailed to a tree

    Proclaim his Love from dark to light.


A dreary night, a time so boring, (sarah2022)

    But a bright light shining that maybe

We never forget the familiar story

    Of God born as a humble and Glorious baby 


The angels cry out "Glory" so deafening (josh2022)

    Their bright light proclaim a Savior born

The shepherds weary and alone sitting

    Then joyous hearts leaping this wondrous morn.


Glory to God in the highest (Mom2022)

    The angels proclaim the birth of a lamb

Our Father gives us our King, the best

    Wonderful Savior, triumphant God-man.


The ressurection of Jesus our faith rely  (assurance)

And on the cross our sins on Christ die

The beginning our Savior as a child lives

Glory to Bethlehem, salvation gives 


Christmas-time, a season of gift giving

God's gift, the Messiah, makes life worth living.

Another titanic gift God has made,

Is the gift that saves, our priceless faith.


In despair we live life and a day

Sometimes our faith once strong, gives way

Grasping for salvation we work forlorn

But God's great gift, a Savior, a baby born

2023=============================================

Our savior sits at God's right hand 2023 Joshua

Saints and angels and all cause to stand

Began many year ago on a cold quiet morn

Our savior, sin's death was silently born


One cannot believe the Christmas Story 2023 Stephanie

A baby born to bring His Father Glory

We with hushed wonder why God would give

His Begotten son to die that we might live.



The baby born set our hearts aflame2023 Sarah

He lives to die to set us free

Gladly, lovingly, lowly kneel to thee


The agony on the cross for all to see2023 Mom

Began in a town in a manger that night

God's wondrous gift, a child, our Christmas light.
