A holy gift born in a manger
in the town of Bethlehem
And with him came the breath of life,
a blessed peace within....

A precious babe who gave his all
born upon this night
As in the east a star did shine
within the sky so bright....

Blessed be his holy name
God gave to us His son
Born in the stable all forlorn
a new life had begun....

As far as the east is to the west
he throws our sins away;
As we remember his blessed gift
on this Christmas Day.
