First Christmas Day and Night

Many years ago on this night

Over Bethlehem a star shone bright

And God came to earth as man

To save us from death’s eternal hand


Many years ago on this day

Three men who had travelled a long way

Came with gifts for the king

And that night did angels sing


When the choir from heaven sang

Shepherds left their flocks with thanks

To see the saviour for themselves

And realise heaven’s intangible wealth


So many years ago on this day and night

The earth received a bright new light

And the hope of salvation was born that day

As the baby who in the manger lay


Happy Birthday Immanuel

God with us
