~ Prophecy Fulfilled ~
This year, as we gather around
The Christmas tree,
Singing songs from days of yore,
Reciting a Christmas story of
The wise men three,
And how precious gifts they bore;
We recall how the star
Led the Shepherd’s from afar
To a lowly manger
Where lay the newborn King;
Salvation for us this
Christ-child would bring;
Our hearts swell with pride
As we recount the prophecy
Foretold down through
The ages worldwide;
On this day we welcome
The celebration of His birth,
Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ;
This holy infant, this only son of God,
Who came to give us life
