Christmas Celebration

Celebrate Christmas with joyous mirth
The Lord arrived to bring peace to earth 
Raise your hands in ardent praise 
It is the sinners he will raise 

A declaration for regististration
had been proclaimed in the land
Bethlehams the destination
So, he took her by the hand

Upon the donkeys back, he fastened the girth
Knowing the journey would be filled with myrrh
Unaware of the significance
This trip would incur

Celebrate Christmas with joyous mirth
The Lord arrived to bring peace to earth
Raise your hands in ardent praise
It is sinners he will raise

Hungry and weary they arrived at the Inn
A single event infused the world with a win
History recorded for all ye nations
A baby was born to engulf mans sin

Only a father who loves you so dear
Supplies you with a birth of immeasurable worth
When the evening turns to twilight
Remember whose the Christmas Highlight

So, Celebrate Christmas with joyous mirth
The Lord arrived to bring peace to the earth
Raise your hands in ardent praise
It is the sinners he will raise
