A Communion Hymn For Christmas
Verse 1
Gathered round Your table on this holy eve,
viewing Bethlehem's stable we rejoice and grieve
Joy to see You lying in Your manger bed,
weep to see You dying in our sinful stead 

Verse 2
Prince of Glory, gracing Heav'n ere time began
Now for us embracing death as Son of Man
By Your birth so lowly, by Your love so true
By Your cross most holy, Lord we worship You!

Verse 4
With profoundest wonder we Your body take
Laid in manger yonder, broken for our sake
Hushed in adoration we approach the cup
Bethlehem's pure oblation freely offered up

Verse 5
Christmas Babe so tender, Lamb who bore our blame
How shall sinners render praises due Your name?
Do Your own good pleasure in the lives we bring
In Your ransomed treasure reign forever King!
