Angels came to say
A babe was born this night
Follow yonder star
Shepherds in delight
Lowly cattle shed
She gazed into his face
A tiny baby born
To save the human race
Precious gifts
Frankincense, myrrh, and gold
Wise men adorned him
A wonder to behold
His ministry led the way
With twelve friends in three years
He died on that bloody cross
He brought the world to tears
The lamb came to save us
To bring us such great hope
His love touched mankind heart
The prayer, the power, the scope
The first Christmas morn
Was the very beginning toward the end
Leading to the wonderful time
For Jesus to descend
A Precious Gift For Mankind
Christmas
