A Party For Jesus

We're having a party for Jesus It's his birthday today you know We must show him we've not forgotten His humble birth so long ago The invitations have been extended The candles have been lit The organ is playing softly As we search for a place to sit How beautiful the altar looks The flowers are banked with care As we pleasantly breathe their scent Wafting sofly through the air How eagerly we meet our friends We're happy to see them here To help us celebrate Christ's birth The baby Jesus dear The choir sings out with joy Alleluia's rent the air We sing beloved Christmas Hymns For music is also prayer There is no "Happy Holiday" here No Santa with his sleigh We've come to say "Happy Birthday" For this is Jesus' day!
