THE BIRTH OF SALVATION.
By Edward York
It is time again to celebrate,
All around the earth.
The arrival of the little king,
That came through virgin birth.
The bright star shone in the sky,
That helped to show the way,
For all those who came bearing gifts,
And those who knelt to pray.
He lay dressed in simple clothes,
For those who came to see.
And as he taught the world to love,
He knew what would come to be.
In a stable he could be found,
But still the people came,
Salvation lies in a manger.
And Jesus was his name.
His arrival had changed the world,
He had battles yet to win,
The only reason he was born,
Was to take away our sin.
