Season of His Story

 

Candles glowing,

Bells ringing,

Joyous carols,

Children singing –

 

The glorious season

Of joy and love

Warms the heart

With light from above.

 

Lift our hearts,

Raise our voices,

Together in song

The world rejoices.

For Christ is born,

In flesh the Word,

His Message saves all

Receiving what heard.

 

Born to die

So that we may live:

Blood-bought redemption,

What a Gift to give!

 

From His throne

In Heavenly glory,

He came to men

To fulfill His Story.

 

Yet rejected by men,

He found hatred and scorn

And accepted the Cross

With nails and thorn.

 

But gloriously rising

Upon the third day,

The sting of death

Forever He cast away.

 

For all who believe

That He does redeem

Will enter Heaven,

Where joy does teem.

 

And of this joy

We sing this season;

Indeed Christ our Lord

Is the Reason.

 

Coming to earth,

Resting in a manger,

Meeting cold poverty,

Hatred and danger,

 

All out of Love pure,

Love for you, for me –

So with Him in Heaven

We could one day be.

 

Lift our hearts then,

Raise our voices,

Together in song

As the world rejoices,

His Message saves all

Receiving what heard.

For Christ is born,

In flesh the Word.
