A baby boy was born, in Bethlehem one night,
He was born to live and die, to eradicate man’s plight.
Jesus was the spotless Lamb, who died for you and I,
But many don’t understand, and ask the question – Why?
He came for you, He came for me, He came for everyone,
For God so loved the World, He gave His only Son.
A precious gift of love, was made for all mankind,
So that those who believe in Him, would not be left behind.
His precious blood that was shed, on the cross that day,
Light of the World, You came to show the way.
Your broken body, beaten and torn,
On Your shoulders, man’s sin was borne.
Eternal life with You, is the Precious gift,
Every time I imagine this, it gives me such a lift.
I need to feel You Jesus, Your Glorious embrace,
Until You call me home, and I see You face to face.
