What a Savior we have in Christ!
He, who defined righteousness and accomplished it.
He, who came in helpless form, revealing different riches.
He, who spoke through parable, inviting belief and faith.
He, who loved the unlovable, and cherished the forsaken.
He, who did not see equality with God something to be grasped.
He, who laid down his life as God's determinative response to sin.
He, who was raised up to return to the Father's side in glory.
He, who swallows up sinners in Himself, thereby reconciling them to God.
He, who declares sinners holy and beloved through his wounds.
This season we celebrate what you, O Christ have done.
What is more, we cherish you-
not as a babe who came and went,
but as our present and interceding Lord.
Open our eyes to the reality of this!
Grant us sight, and grace us with belief.
Grant us sight, and grace us with belief.
Teach us to know life with you as life in you.
And in the name of Jesus we ask,
Amen.
And in the name of Jesus we ask,
Amen.
"O holy night! The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of our dear Saviour’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
‘Til He appear’d and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
‘Til He appear’d and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born;
O night divine, O night, O night Divine.
O night divine, O night when Christ was born;
O night divine, O night, O night Divine.
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here come the wise men from Orient land.
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger;
In all our trials born to be our friend.
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here come the wise men from Orient land.
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger;
In all our trials born to be our friend.
He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger,
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King, Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King, Before Him lowly bend!
Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother;
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name.
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother;
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! O praise His Name forever,
His power and glory evermore proclaim.
His power and glory evermore proclaim."
His power and glory evermore proclaim.
His power and glory evermore proclaim."
