Christmas Day – whose birth is it?

(a song by Cathy Sampson 2003, CD: Stand Firm - Cathy Sampson)

KING OF KINGS
Isaiah 7,9; Matt 1:23; Luke 1:30-33, 67-69; Phil 2:6-11; Col 1:15-20; Rev 15:3-4; 19:1-8, 15-16

1 For unto us a Son is given
On earth His reign will bring release
Fullness of God, this child in earth and heaven
Guides our feet into the path of peace

CHORUS:
He is the King of Kings
The Lord of Lords
The mighty Prince of Peace
He is the Lamb of God
Emmanuel
The Holy One of God

2 Here is born in David’s town
To you a Saviour, Christ on earth
On royal throne, God’s righteous Son is crowned
Our salvation comes in lowly birth

3 Humble obedience shown in death
As on the Cross He won our peace
God raised His Son, now all will bend their knee
On that day when all our sorrows cease

4 As with the angles we can cry
Great are your deeds, your ways are just
Power and glory to the Lord on high
King of all the Ages, God with us
