The first Christmas day and night
By May Kwek
Many years ago on this night
Over Bethlehem
And God came to earth as man
To save us from death’s eternal hand
Many years ago on this day
Three men who had travelled a long way
Came with gifts for the king
And that night did angels sing
When the choir from heaven sang
Shepherds left their flocks with thanks
To see the saviour for themselves
And realise heaven’s intangible wealth
So many years ago on this day and night
The earth received a bright new light
And the hope of salvation was born that day
As the baby who in the manger lay
Happy Birthday Immanuel
God with us
