I Wonder as I Wander

I wonder as I wander out under the sky,
How Jesus the Savior did come for to die.
For poor on’ry people like you and like I…
I wonder as I wander out under the sky.
When Mary birthed Jesus ’twas in a cow’s stall,
With wise men and farmers and shepherds and all.
But high from God’s heaven a star’s light did fall,
And the promise of ages it then did recall.
If Jesus had wanted for any wee thing,
A star in the sky, or a bird on the wing,
Or all of God’s angels in heav’n for to sing,
He surely could have it, ’cause he was the King.

Lo! how a rose e'er blooming
From tender stem hath sprung!
Of Jesse's lineage coming
As men of old have sung.
It came, a floweret bright,
Amid the cold of winter,
When half-spent was the night.
Isaiah 'twas fore-told it,
The rose I have in mind;
With Mary we behold it,
The virgin mother kind.
To show God's love aright
She bore to men a Savior,
When half-spent was the night.
This flower, whose fragrance tender
With sweetness fills the air,
Dispels with glorious splendor
The darkness everywhere.
True man, yet very God,
From sin and death He saves us,
And lightens every load.

Hope is Here
03:26

Close to home, pain and need,
Power plays, crime and greed.
But what we have is so much more;
Our hurting world He will restore.
Look further still, fear and death,
Suffering, nothing left.
But what we have is so much more;
Our hurting world He will restore.
Hope is here
Love's come down
It's Christmastime
Spread the joy around
Friends and foes, now unite;
Reconcile, behold the light.
For what we have is so much more;
Our hurting world He will restore.
Hope is here
Love's come down
It's Christmastime
Spread the joy around

Love came down at Christmas
Love all lovely Love divine
Love was born at Christmas
Star and angels gave the sign
Worship we the Godhead
Love incarnate Love divine
Worship we our Jesus
But wherewith for sacred sign
Love shall be our token
Love be yours and love be mine
Love to God and all men
Love for plea and gift and sign
