The Wondrous and True Story of Christmas



The wondrous and true story of Christmas
Softens hearts and raises voices to sing
That we find anew His peace is within us
Unto being given to serving and doing

For kindness and mercy is reenthroned
And we ponder our Heavenly Father above
To sacrifice and offer up His own
Teaches what infinite love is made of

From the start it was a lesson in sacrifice
With each of us being the beneficiaries
Only the purest lamb of unselfishness could suffice
To bear our grief as all sorrows He carries
