For unto us a Child is born,
A babe in Beth’lem inn.
A Saviour came from heav’n above
To redeem us from our sin.
For unto us a Son is given,
A gift to all the earth.
The Word of God Incarnate
Came to give new birth.
A Sovereign in a manger laid,
No crown upon His head.
Wrapped in bands of swaddling cloth
No pillow for His head.
Almighty God who left His home,
Contracted to a span.
The Holy One from pure’ty came,
To dwell with sinful man.
Eternal One, no time He knew
‘Til on this sphere, He trod.
He learnt about the hours’ constraints -
The timeless, infinite God.
The Prince of Peace, saw worldly strife,
His battle lay ahead.
When on the cross of Calvary
He took our place instead.
The Sun of Righteousness did rise,
With healing in His wings,
As angels worship Him with praise,
His heavenly choir still sings.
For unto us a Child is born,
A message He still brings,
For full salvation, call on Him
He is the King of kings!
