GOD'S GIFT TO THE WORLD
(Gerry Holmes, 1999)


In a world where sadness lives,
And in times of trouble,
The light of Christmas still shines 
Pure and clear and warm.

Chorus: 
Happy birthday Lover of lonely ones,
Happy birthday Prince of Peace,
Happy birthday Friend of prisoners,
Jesus, you call us to be God's gift to the world.

We remember Mary's faith,
We remember Joseph;
The light of Christmas still shines 
Pure and clear and warm.

And with simple trust in God,
Like in star following,
The light of Christmas still shines 
Pure and clear and warm.
