Oh the pleasure and the joy;
Mary's new born baby boy
Fulfilled a promise made when time began.
In a simple shepherd's shed,
On a humble straw filled bed,
The birthplace of our God becoming man.

Jesus came to save the world,
In accordance with God's word,
As all the holy prophets had foretold.
At our Lord's appointed time,
The Messiah had arrived,
But mostly was rejected by His own.

From the virgin mother's womb,
To Golgotha's empty tomb,
He perfectly obeyed the Father's will.
His life and death were planned,
By the wisdom of God's hand,
And His resurrection proved who He is.

Now to all who come to Him
With repentance from their sin,
His glorious salvation He reveals.
Oh ! your faith will make you whole,
Bringing cleansing to your soul,
Wonderful and glorious and real.

So forever sing His praise,
Giving thanks for all His grace,
Who gives such mighty precious gifts to men.
When we shall see His face,
All our tears will be erased;
Eternal life and glory never ends.
