Where God’s great gift was sent to men

Where God’s great gift was sent to men.

'T was many, many years ago

A babe was born midst skies aglow

And from the heaven’s angelic throng

Proclaimed His birth with holy song

And in the fields the shepherds lay

Until they heard the angel say

"Fear not, great tidings, I bring this morn

For unto you a saviour's born."

And in the manger, the baby lay

Upon a humble bed of hay

And from the East the wise men came

To worship His most holy name.

For they had seen His star by night

And followed its abiding light

Until they came to Bethlehem

Where God’s great gift was sent to men.

For Christ was come that He might die

To save the world from sin and lies

He gave His life on Calvary

That some day we may be set free

So let us all with one accord

Fall down and worship our dear Lord

Whose precious love for you and me

Will warm our hearts eternally.

(An original song from about 1993 by Katie den Admirant.)

I just found this song in my papers and I thought I should share it. Katie has not been well for a number of years./drf
