Behold (with O Holy Night) [A Christmas Moment]

The sin-sick world needed saving

And though we tried and tried

We could not save ourselves

But God, in His infinite wisdom, provided

A way. A way not mapped out by

Human hands but divinely directed to change

The course of history. Through His son Jesus

Salvation made its way from the

Thrones of heaven to the throes of humanity.

Arriving not in splendor, but in simplicity,

As a baby. This was not entirely what

Was expected, but it's exactly what was needed.

Behold the King has come, divinity incarnate

Creator of the world, breathing our air

Behold what light has come, and the dark cannot contain it

The Savior of the world is finally here

Behold the Father's love, beyond all comprehension

He gave His only Son to die in our place

Through Jesus, all is accomplished

The words of the law and the prophets

Fulfilled. Salvation has come to the

lost. Sight for the blind, healing for

The sick, death reversed and sin defeated

for good. So here

And now, at Christmas, we stand in awe

And worship. Not to simply sing happy

Songs or exchange humble gifts but to

Remember why Jesus was born.

For in His birth, He set course to the cross

And that cross casts an eternal light on the

Shadows of this world. Light that makes

The darkness flee, the enemy retreat

And death itself reverse. We worship today because

Salvation is ours. Through Christ Jesus

The baby. Born to die, born to save

The world and overcome the grave.

Go and see that empty tomb, He's not there for He is risen

Ev'ry heart prepare Him room, Jesus Christ the King of Heaven

Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices

O night divine, O night when Christ was born

O night, divine, O night, O night divine

Come let us adore Him, come let us adore Him

For He alone is worthy, Christ the Lord

Come let us adore Him, come let us adore Him
