So many ancient generations long ago,
On what may have been a frosty and blustery winter eve,
There lay in a humble manger a beautiful child born to one,
Whom through Holy Spirit, a virgin called Mary did conceive.

Shepherds in the distance heard glorious music from angels’ voices,
Praising God and exclaiming His favor.
The time had come for God’s very own Son to be revealed,
Our Precious Magnificent Lord and Savior.

These lowly shepherds could not contain,
The joy that captured the core of their inner being,
They had to hastily seek out the One whom the Angels proclaimed,
Through their marvelous eloquent singing.

They soon found this baby in the manger with His earthly parents,
Joseph and Mary close by His side.
They gazed in amazement upon this Wonder of Heaven,
It could no longer be denied.

God’s great promise of redemption,
As foretold through His Anointed Prophets had begun,
With the miraculous birth of this small lovely baby boy Jesus,
He called His Beloved Son.

God’s promises always come true because He is faithful to complete them,
They cannot falter.
For it says in the Bible,
He will not break His Covenant or the words He has spoken will He alter.

The shepherds left what they had witnessed with a rekindled spark of hope in their God,
Of which they could not easily contain.
That fire within them, they had to share the Good News,
To anyone who would listen to them explain.

Amazement and marvel filled that evening’s hours,
Those many arduous centuries ago.
One peaceful night, in which Heaven’s windows had opened wide its fountains of continuous blessings,
Never ceasing even today to flow.

What a wondrous night to reminisce with family and close friends,
The story of God’s Beloved Son’s birth.
As we are cheerful in our gatherings, let us remember to sing with much love and gratitude,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Jesus from all upon the earth!
