God's well-beloved Son
Came down to earth,
Angelic voice proclaimed
His humble birth,
Heavenly multitude
All joined to praise our God
For in that manger rude
Lay Christ the Lord.
Jesus was born to die;
For this He came,
To go to Calvary
With all its shame;
There all our sins He bore,
Endured God's judgment sore,
Oh how our hearts adore
And praise His Name.
He is in heaven now,
In glory lives:
Seated at God's right hand
Salvation gives
To all who trust in Him,
Who died their hearts to win,
He'll wash away their sins;
Yes Jesus lives.
Soon He will come again
Into the air,
To call His own away
To heaven so fair;
His Father's house above,
Our home of joy and love,
His peace we'll ever prove,
His glory share.
Muriel J. Flett (1922-1987)
