Happy merry christmas and a Happy new year


As the body of Christ,
We celebrate Jesus,
His miraculous birth, as told
That first Christmas morn
When Christ was born
Is significant to the truth we hold

His sacrificial love
Reconciled us to God
With hope of eternal rest
So let us pause and reflect
On God’s love and grace
And know we are wonderfully blessed!
Precious Saviour,
Born the King of Kings,
Christ, the Anointed One
There’s no other reason
Than to celebrate Jesus
And the eternal victory He won
So this Christmas, take time
To reflect on God’s goodness
And the gift of God’s precious Son.

It’s time again to celebrate
And remain truly focused
On our Lord Jesus birth
And how much He loves us
But so much can distract us
And we forget the real reason
We gather around to celebrate
This joyous, festive season.
hristmas time
Is a time to reflect
And celebrate our saviour’s birth;
A special time
To join together
And rejoice that He came to earth.
In a barn,
In a little town
Many years ago,
Christ came down
In human form,
His love for us, He showed
Many years
Have passed since then
And many more to come
His holy birth
Has made us friends
With God through His dear son.
Christmas is a time to reflect
On all that God has done
It's not a matter of what we get,
But the birth of the Holy one
It's not about gifts
With ribbons and bows,
Or Christmas trees,
Tinsel and mistletoe
The Christmas gift given to us,
Is Jesus Christ's
Gift of love.
esus, Son of God,
Born on Christmas day
The saviour of the world,
In a manger, He did lay
The sheep and cattle lowing
Standing by His bed
The angels sing in triumph
What long ago was said
That He would come from Bethlehem,
The birth, a miracle
The holy child in mother's arms,
God's gift unto the world.
Jesus Christ,
God's dear son,
Born on Christmas day
Holy and magnificent,
God's special gift, He gave
Blessed saviour
Of the world,
Whose coming was foretold
His beauty
And His preciousness,
Our hearts forever hold.
God of grace and mercy
Looked down from up above
To see a world in chaos,
Without hope and love
He saw the only way
Was to send His precious son,
To be born of a woman,
Bringing hope to everyone
He came into the world
Just a babe in swaddling cloth,
Who one day grew to be
The saviour of the lost.
A long, long time ago
In a stable far away,
Christ the holy child was born,
Fulfilling the promise made
His holy birth, so marvellous,
His majesty to behold,
This Christmas time think of Him
And what the New Year holds.
Jesus is the holy one
Who lived with us on earth,
Sent down from God, our Father,
So miraculous was His birth
Although born the king of kings,
He lived a servant's life
He showed us all how to live
And placed His love inside.
It is the festive season
To celebrate Christ's birth,
To rejoice in knowing He came
Bringing peace throughout the earth
He came a tiny baby
Then grew to be a man,
The saviour of the world
With healing in His hands
So celebrate this season
With joy and expectation,
For Jesus is so worthy
Of our praise and adoration.
More than Christmas wreaths
Hanging on our doors
Is Jesus Christ's wondrous birth,
The blessing of our Lord
The sounds of Christmas songs,
We all love to sing,
Echoes Jesus, Son of God,
Born the king of kings.
What a wonderful gift
That God has freely given
The gift of His son
The blessing of heaven,
Who brings us much joy
And gives eternal life
When He came as a baby
Then became our sacrifice
So when we believe
And put our trust in Him,
We will truly know His peace
And freedom from our sin.
The sounds of Christmas songs,
Echoes through my mind
And brings much joy to my heart
As I sing those happy rhymes
But so much more than that,
I think of God's great gift
Of sending Jesus Christ, a babe,
To heal and to forgive
So as we sing with joyful hearts,
Let's think of Jesus Christ
And how He came that first Christmas
To give to us new life.
Lord of the heavens
Is Lord of the earth
He is the Lord of glory
Who was born a lowly birth
He left His throne in heaven
To live among us here,
To bring us peace, to bring us hope
That one day we will share
So we may give to others
What Jesus gave to us
Then we shall know true inner peace
When reconciled in love.
Now is the time of rejoicing
And praise forever more
To God who gave a precious gift
In the birth of our Lord
We praise Him for His goodness,
We thank Him for His life
For Him to give up everything
Cost such a great price
So remember the sacrifice made
In Jesus lowly birth
To reconcile us back to God
And bring peace throughout the earth.
We remember Christ,
Who was born this day,
Many years before
When we think of christmas
The story of Christ,
We just cannot ignore

For it's at this time,
We can all celebrate
The coming of our Lord
To a world in need
Of hope and love,
Is what we thank Him for.
The shepherds were watching
Their sheep at night
When they heard the sound
Of singing
They knew that a king
Had been born
Through the good news the angels
Were bringing
They ran to see
The new born baby,
Our saviour, Jesus Christ
The wise men, too,
Had gathered round
With gifts of treasure and spice.
Christmas time again
Fills our hearts with joy,
Love came down to bless
Every girl and boy
The greatest of stories
Ever to be told
Is Jesus born a baby,
What a wonder to behold.
I thank the Lord
For sending His son
To one and all
So His will, will be done
The greatest love
Ever to be seen,
Is the love of Jesus
And the hope He brings.
