CP30. Jesus Christ the Lord is born

Authors: Perry, Michael Arnold, Peacock, David Christopher

JESUS CHRIST THE LORD IS BORN,
all the bells are ringing!
Angels greet the holy One
and shepherds hear them singing,
and shepherds hear them singing.

2 ‘Go to Bethlehem today,
find your King and Saviour:
glory be to God on high,
to earth his peace and favour,
to earth his peace and favour!’

(Women)
3 Held within a cattle stall,
loved by love maternal,
see the master of us all,
our Lord of lords eternal,
our Lord of lords eternal!

(Men)
4 Soon shall come the wise men three,
rousing Herod’s anger;
mothers’ hearts shall broken be
and Mary’s son in danger,
and Mary’s son in danger.

5 Death from life and life from death,
our salvation’s story:
let all living things give breath
to Christmas songs of glory,
to Christmas songs of glory!
