Jesus

Born to a virgin in some hay
In a manger He did lay
This babe that came was heaven sent
He'd pay sins cost so we'd repent

Angels sang were he did stay
Born to a virgin in some hay
His life was spent  with the masses
To show His love non surpasses

He gave His all so we could be
In His family for eternity
Born to a virgin in some hay
Among the animals  He did lay

He paid sins price upon the cross
His blood He shed for us, the lost
From death to life to show the way
Born to a virgin in some hay
