A Babe's Birth

orchidee



Tune: Sussex Carol

('On Christmas night all Christians sing')

*********

O spread the news of Christmas cheer

The season once again is here

O spread the news of Christmas cheer

The season once again is here

Time when our Saviour Christ was born

Rejoice you now, no longer mourn

 

Light of the world. come down to earth

Through Mary. lowly virgin birth

Light of the world. come down to earth

Through Mary. lowly virgin birth

Power of God o'ershadowing

Her, impossible be no thing

 

Jesus, He be Emmanuel

'Tis God with us, the good news tell

Jesus, He be Emmanuel

'Tis God with us, the good news tell

Ne'er now shall leave us comfortless

Sends His Spirit, and does us bless

 

Christ's coming to a world of sin

To cleanse us, make us new within

Christ's coming to a world of sin

To cleanse us, make us new within

We too can be born from above

By His Spirit sent by His love
