The angel Gabriel appeared to Mary, He said that she would bear a son, And call Him Jesus, the Son of David, The Saviour, man, and Holy One. (Chorus) The perfect gift came down from heaven, The Son of God born on the earth; The Prince of Peace, the King of Jacob, Became a babe of humble birth. The shepherds kneeling, the angels singing, Give praises to the infant Lord. The Father's glory shines round about them; The love of God that night outpoured. (Chorus) His beaming star stood above the manger, It led the wise men from the East; They fell and worshipped, and then presented Their gifts to Jesus, King and Priest. (Chorus) By Isaiah Zerbst on November 24, 2013

It does seem just like a true Christmas carol, and I bet it would sound great put to music.
