More than a child born in the
hay,
Jesus, my Lord, on that first Christmas day.
More than the son of a
carpenter man;
You carried the weight of the world in your
hand.
For you are the hope of my
soul,
All that I see, and all that I know.
In you, there is peace in my
life,
For one day you came, as angels proclaimed,
The light of the world
for us all!
More than a star shining that
night,
More than the shepherds amazed by the sight,
More than three wise
men with riches of gold;
You, the Messiah, the prophets
foretold
Would come, bringing newness
and life,
Freedom from sin, deliv'rance from strife.
In you, there is
peace evermore,
For one day you came, as angels proclaimed,
The light of
the world for us all.
Yes, one day you came, as
angels proclaimed,
Redeemer and Lord of us all!
