Birth Of A King On Christmas Day
Interpreted by: Wilfred Charles Mellers
Thursday, November 28,2013
Adam, Micah, Isaac, and Abraham
The humble shepherd and the lamb
Moses, Aaron, Haggai, and King Solomon
Paul, Jacob, Joshua, and John
King David, Peter, Joel and Samuel
Daniel, Amos, Jonah, and Ezekiel
From Genesis, Exodus to Deuteronomy
From Isaiah, Jeremiah to Zachariah
Before our eyes, it will unfold
Profits old they foretold
The alpha, omega, and sovereign
He will come to end all suffering
An ear please brother lend
The redeemer the almighty send
From heaven, an angel descend
Spoke only to these three wise men
I'm thy lords word and Messenger
In Bethlehem, there's a child in a manger
My words don't thee disregard
You shall follow the brightest star
To this, thou shall not inquire
To all things he's the sire
Gifts for him thou shall acquire
The holy offspring and Messiah
Son of Joseph and Mary
Never more shall Thee be weary
I put my trust in you completely
I give to thee my soul freely
His majesty, Lord, and savior
Betrayed for pieces of silver
Our father and son of creation
For everlasting life's solution
Surely goodness and mercy will follow me
You quench my soul when I'm thirsty
Blessed are those that endured
Your place in heaven is secured
You came to cleanse us from our sins
In you, life truly begins
In prayers, we kneel before thee
Only my lord can restore me
On a hill called Calvary
On a cross, you died for me
Mary cried and the sky opened wide
The kingdom of heaven welcomed you back inside
A sacrifice had to be made
For our souls the price you paid
Now death is no longer the end
So lift thy voice and say Amen
Herald trumpets sound thy return
Pagans in hell shall forever burn
They won't be caught in thy rapture
In paradise, I'll dwell ever after
Bread, wine, song, and laughter
We turn our page to a new chapter
Father, son, and Holy Ghost
The true spirit holds me close
Laid my burdens down by the river
In your grace, I'll live forever
