The Way He Came

Just to think such Royalty would come the way He came, In a dusty little town. Born in such humility upon a bed of hay, Certainly He laid His glory down. Who would think this little Child w ould be the promised One? Would the Messiah really come this way? Certainly this was no birth place for the Son of God! Isn't it amazing how He came? Isn't it amazing the way He came? No crown, no throne, no big parade. There were no fanfares played, n o jubilant display. Isn't it amazing how He came? ~Mark Harris

Hark, The Herald Angels Sing

Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King; Peace on earth, and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled!" Joyful, all ye nations rise, join the triumph of the skies; With the angelic host proclaim, "Christ is born in Bethlehem!" Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King!" Christ by highest heaven adored; Christ, the everlasting Lord! Late in time behold Him come, offspring of the virgin's womb. Veiled in flesh the God-head see; hail the Incarnate Deity, Pleased as man with men to dwell, Jesus our Emmanuel. Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King!" Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace! Hail the Son of Righteousness! Light and life to all he brings, risen with healing in His wings. Mild He lays His glory by, born that man no more may die, Born to raise the sons of earth, born to give them second birth. Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King!" ~Charles W
