The Greatest Gift

The Greatest Gift


The angels sang His praises clear
no greater words we'll ever hear
than the message of our Saviors birth
He, whose light had graced the earth
to bear the burden of our sin
so that we may be born again!

This precious Lamb has paid the price
he made the greatest sacrifice.
Lord help me to repent my sin
so I may always honor Him.
He shed His blood so I could live
a greater gift, no one could give!
