Grace of One Creature

Of free will, graced one creature,
All for us learn from our teacher.
Jesus; walked, that was the sign
To err is human, to forgive divine.

Born as a babe, protected was he.
As he protects all, thine and thee,
He gave us a righteous soul so fine.
To err is human, to forgive divine.

Teach he did, some fought the way.
He taught love, forgiveness each day.
He never gave anybody, any decline.
To err is human, to forgive divine.

Our Father in Heaven sent only son.
Live, die, for our sins, now it is done,
Before end, broke bread, drank wine
To err is human, to forgive divine.

Upon day, we celebrate his birth.
Many ask, humanity was it worth,
For what he decided to consign,
To err is human, to forgive divine.

To err is human, to forgive divine.
All religions hold truth of trine.
He was born for all, yours and mine.
To err is human, to forgive divine.
