Christ Jesus, the Messiah
© 2010, Phillip Gaeddert
Christ Jesus, the Messiah was
born as a little babe
Creator, King, and Son of God
in manger hay was laid
Salvation plan of God for man
to save elect from sin
was wrapped up in those swaddling bands
revealed to lowly men
Angels announced and shepherds heard
the message sent from heav’n
the virgin had just given birth
to Christ in Bethlehem
The shepherds rose and went with haste
to where the child was laid
and magi travelled night and day
with gifts and homage paid
Simeon blessed; Anna rejoiced
Messiah it was He
yet knew their sins of heart and voice
invoked a penalty
Christ Jesus, the Messiah was
born as a little babe
Creator, King, and Son of God
on Him our sins were laid
