Joy has downed upon our world, promised from creation God’s salvation now unfurled, hope for every nation. Not with fanfares from above, not with scenes of glory; But a humble gift of love – Jesus born of Mary.
Sounds of wonder fill the sky with the songs of angels, As the mighty Prince of Life shelters in a stable. Hands that set each star in place, shaped the earth in darkness, Cling now to a mother’s breast, vulnerable and helpless.
