Merry Christmas To You Lord

Hear the angels sing
To the newborn King
Welcome to this world that you have made
A fragile little one
This is God's one son
He has sent you to save the world

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you Lord

There the baby lays
In the manger hay
Could it be there's more than meets the eye
The Father's falling tear
He shed all he held dear
To save the world this perfect one must die

You came to live, to be one of us
You humbled yourself out of love
You came to die that I might live
Each moment, each breath for Christ
On this holy day
My heart longs to say
Happy birthday to you oh Lord
I'm so glad you came
Your precious blood you gave
So someone like me could be reborn
