Unto Us a Child Is Born

Our Redeemer “No room in the inn,” they heard the man say – Discouraging news on a long, weary day.

“Go to the stable, bed down in the hay; That’s the best I can do, if you’d like to stay.”

Since Mary and Joseph were tired and worn And needed a place for the Child to be born, They went to the place where the animals lay And made a small bed for the Babe out of hay.

Right before dawn, a cry could be heard…

A Savior was born – the True Living Word.

The awaited Redeemer, sent from above…

A Gift from the Father, a true act of love.

For, unless Jesus came, there would be no way For entry to Heaven on our final day.

Let’s open our hearts so we can receive His free Gift to all who choose to believe.

Filling the Air We sing the songs the angels sang, That night so long ago; They told the world of Jesus’ birth That set all hearts aglow.

We kneel together and bow our heads, And speak to God and pray; We thank Him for our blessings rich, On this special Christmas Day. Mary Elizabeth Matthews
