Tune: Carol (Willis) / Noel
('It came upon the midnight clear')
Isaiah 9 v.6-7
*********
For unto us a child is born
Revealed on Christmas morn
Unto us is given a son
Jesus Christ, He the one
The government shall be upon
His shoulders, compare none
And here we do His name express
The Son of God no less
His name shall be called Wonderful
Showing great deeds to all
And too His name be Counsellor
To Him we may refer
For wisdom, guidance through each day
He be the Life, Truth, Way
The Mighty God, the e'erlasting
Father, salvation brings
He be the Prince of Peace, increase
Of His kingdom ne'er cease
No end of His government, peace
His throne shall ne'er decrease
He shall it order, establish
As be His Father's wish
Rule with justice and judgement e'er
Zeal of the Lord seen there

Even if I belong to Hinduism, I love Jesus. All doctrines of Jesus are true.
May God bless you, poet.

Thanks N. Yep, I mention Ch....ristmas now. Goldie/Andy lets u do so in December! lol. He will shoot us down if we mention it in, e.g. June. Well, that 's when first Christmas catalogues arrive.
You've chosen one of my favorite Christmas songs to accompany this lovely poem. When I think of the nativity, I think of the awakening of human conscience, love, kindness in the person of Jesus, and that is a beautiful thing. Thank you dear friend.
Thanks Bella.
