Hebrews 10:5
Philippians 2:7
Hosts of angels gazed in wonder
As they flew from Heaven high,
Gath’ring in clouds torn asunder,
Glory in the night time sky.
Sweetest singing, whilst beholding
A poor stable, meagre bare
Where young mother rested, holding
New born babe with tender care.
How amazing, what a mystery,
There within that manger lay
God Himself, Divine, Creator,
Cradled in a bed of hay.
Mighty God veiled in a body
Come to earth from heaven above,
And His coming speaks a language,
Language of eternal love.
Hands that touched the leper outcast,
Healing, with compassion’s grace.
Eyes that wept, all-seeing, -knowing,
Eyes that shone with love’s embrace.
Voice of wisdom, knowledge, insight,
Voice of all authority.
Seeing hearts and deepest motive,
Exposing all hypocrisy.
Friend of sinners, friend of children,
Friend of all who loved His name,
Welcoming the poor, the needy,
Healing all who to Him came.
Mighty God veiled in a body
Come to earth from heaven above,
All His living spoke a language,
Language of eternal love.
Knowing treachery, betrayal,
Experiencing rejection’s pain,
Abandoned, desolate, forsaken
By the ones who’d loved His name.
Suffering Saviour, body broken,
Pierced and nailed to cross of grief
Bearing in His perfect body
All my sin and unbelief.
But the grave could never hold Him
And He rose in triumph’s power
Victor, Saviour, great Redeemer,
Conquering death and evil’s hour.
Mighty God veiled in a body
Come to earth from heaven above,
Dying, Rising – glorious language,
Language of eternal love.
