The Babe Who Came To Save

There in a little town called Bethlehem a couple called Joseph and Mary the young woman who was pregnant filled with worry almost daily Nowhere could be found anywhere until in that little town came inn there a babe came forth here God sent His son to take away sin That little baby named Jesus Christ here was God himself incarnate in this body of flesh and bone He came to save us from our fate The saviour of the world no less this Jesus destiny was upon a cross God's anointed son truth embodied focus to Calvary whatever the loss This God-man full of God's spirit drawing many to believe His gospel came from heaven on a divine mission salvation's news to make others well

Hello Gordon, Very well written. In reality Christmas lasts all year round. If God dint send His Son there would be no light in the world. I see you live in Scotland. Last summer had a chance to visit your wonderful country.Enjoyed the visit.
