We Christians may
rejoice today
When Christ was born to
comfort and to save us.
Who thus believes no
longer grieves,
For none are lost who
grasp the hope He gave
us.
Oh, wondrous joy
that God most high
Should take our flesh
and thus our race should
honor!
A virgin mild hath borne
this Child;
Such grace and glory God
hath put upon her.
Sin brought us grief,
but Christ relief,
When down to earth He
came for our salvation.
Since God with us is
dwelling thus,
Who dares to speak the
Christian�s
condemnation?
The hither throng
with happy song
To Him Whose birth and
death are our assurance;
Through Whom are we at
last set free
From sins and burdens
that surpassed
endurance.
Yea, let us praise
our God and raise
Loud hallelujahs to the
skies above us.
The bliss bestowed today
by God
To ceaseless
thankfulness and joy
should move us.
