LIGHT OF THE WORLD
His star was shining brightly
High in the eastern sky,
A sign from God to tell the world
The Savior had arrived.
Born of the Virgin Mary,
He came to us in love,
The prophecy had been fulfilled
God sent His only Son.
The Wise Men came to see Him,
They showered Him with gifts
Of gold and myrrh and Frankincense
Fine treasures they did give.
The people gathered round Him
And praised the Holy One,
Great hope He brought
For peace on earth
And everlasting love.
The Son of God a teacher,
Was known throughout the land
His lessons taught, His message heard
He shared the Father’s plan.
He mentored to the chosen,
They walked with Him, they prayed,
They lived the Word and shared His love
With passion every day.
The Son they called Messiah,
Lives in our lives today,
He touches every heart and soul
He guides and leads the way.
The blessings He has given,
To each and everyone,
A symbol of His love for us
We celebrate the Son.
