Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh

I have no gold, frankincense or myrrh To offer the King of Kings He has no use for the treasures that were No need for material things So what if the Savior was born today? What gift are you willing to give? The One who would take your sins away For the chance that you might live Would you speak of Him in a public place Or turn your head in shame? Would you tell the world of His Mercy and Grace Or be sorry that He came? What gift would you bring the Redeemer of sins To let Him know His worth? The One who was before time begins The Keeper of the earth He came to bring us Christmas Day Leaving His Throne above And the only gift that He asks today Is our undying love
