The Wonders of Christmas
Christmas has its wonders, as seas their rolling waves,
To cast in awe the softened heart, of God for whom it craves,
?
His plan of salvation, to seek and save the lost,
He takes them in their fallen state, he surely bears their cost,
?
Can God become a man? The Ruler of the Skies,
Forsake his glory and his throne, lost souls the humble prize?
?
Conceived by the Spirit, and born of virgin bride,
His Christmas birth brings life and hope, to those unqualified,
?
Gentleness his manner, though power is his frame,
He crushes not despairing ones, but bows them at his name,
?
Forbearing the wand’rer, the rod of grace restores,
There are no turns on Straight the Road, this side of heaven’s shores,
?
What quenches God’s fierce wrath? A holy judge is he!
To cover all their grievous sins, his blood spilled on a tree,
?
His motive for suff’ring, deep love for them he knows,
To bring them near the heart of God, whom they did fore oppose!
?
Many other marvels, revealed by Christmas light,
Christ shall return, judge all the earth, and win the bloody fight!
?
One issue remaineth, the matter of YOUR soul,
Have you this hope, deep in your heart, and whom do you extoll?
