SEASONS GREETINGS: GOD'S FAVOURITE PEOPLE




IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR ONCE AGAIN,
THE AIR IS FILLED WITH SO MUCH LOVE AND CHEER.

RADIANT COLORS OF SOULFUL CHEER,
ENVELOPES ALL WHO DARES TO CARE.
THE BELLS RING,
AS CHEERFUL HEARTS SING.

ALL HAIL THE TRUE KING,
WHOSE HUMBLE BIRTH JOY BRINGS.
REDEMPTION ECHOED AT HIS FIRST CRY,
CAUSE THE LAMB OF GOD BEGOTTEN.

AND AGES AFTER THIS VICTORIOUS FIT,
WE ALL GATHER IN REMEMBRANCE AND REVERENCE.
TO PRAISE, WORSHIP AND BOW AT HIS FEET.

WE LIFT OUR VOICES IN HEAVENLY CAROLS,
FOR JOY THAT YES HE DIED, BUT THEN HE AROSE.

FOR SAME WAS HIS FATE,
BEGOTTEN; A LAMB ON THIS DATE.
THE SINS OF THE WORLD HE CAME TO ERASE.

AND OH! WE REMEMBER THE GLORIOUS DEED,
ON CALVARY’S TREE HE PLANTED THE SEED.
WHY THENCE HAVE WE COME?
IN REVERENCE OF THE FIRST BIRTH;
THE SIGNAL OF OUR REBIRTH.

LIKE EAGLES GATHERED ON THE MOUNTAIN PEAK,
WE GATHER TO WORSHIP AT HIS FEET.
OF THE JOY AND WONDERS WE’LL GLADLY SPEAK.

HOW GREAT THOU ART SOON COMING KING.

LIKE LIONS WE’LL ROAR,
HALLELUJAH!! TO THE KING OF KINGS
THE ONE WHO LEAVES THE WORLD IN AWE.

AS WE GATHER IN CHEERFUL PRAISE,
LET US ALL REMEMBER.
THIS HUMBLE ACT OF GRACE.

THAT THOUGH HE IS; SON OF GOD,
HE CHOSE TO BE BORN OF MAN.
TO BRING SALVATION TO ALL MANKIND.

TRIUMPHANT AT BIRTH OUR SAVIOUR CAME,
TRIUMPHANT HE AROSE AT REDEMPTION'S DAWN.

IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR ONCE AGAIN,
TO REMEMBER; THE TRUE ESSENCE OF HIS BIRTH.

A TRIUMPHANT KING OUR SAVIOUR IS;
TRIUMPHANT LIVES WE ALSO OUGHT TO LEAD.

THAT WHEN TRUMPETS SOUNDS,
OUR SOULS IN HIS BOSSOM SHALL ABIDE.
AND THE JOY OF HIS BIRTH IS TRULY FOUND.

ARISE!!
 AND CELEBRATE THE SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD.
OUR LORD AND MASTER.

MESSIAH,
JESUS CHRIST;
THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD.

Compliments of the season to you, you and you, (the entire GFH family), with so much Love from.
