Tune: Stille Nacht
('Silent Night', holy night')
Matthew 1 v.18-25 parts
********
The Son of God, here appears
On earth now, each reveres
Him, the Lord God breaks into
Human history, lowly and true
Jesus of virgin born
Jesus of virgin born
Born of the Spirit, Mary
His humble mother be
Joseph as His father earthly
Yet sinless nature Jesus has, see
His Father, God above
His Father, God above
And His name Emmanuel
God with us, let all tell
Mary bore the child, He Jesus
He comes to earth, a Saviour for us
Saves us from all our sins
Saves us from all our sins
Leaving heaven for earth
Lo, He comes, here new birth
All creation it joins to praise
And all heaven, worshipful arrays
Light of the world, shine bright
Light of the world, shine bright
