Three wise men followed
Yonder star that starry night
Shepherds watched their flocks
Angles sang with delight
Laying in a manger
In swaddling cloth was wrapped
His mother gazed into His face
Whilst her baby napped
Born in a filthy cattle shed
Cattle gently lowing
Yonder star light lit the scene
The world was not yet knowing
Gifts brought to adorn
Frankincense, myrrh and gold
Began the very essence
Of the greatest story ever told
Unfurled His life would be
At His Father's plan
Opening the world to truth
For His endless love of man
He came to work amongst us
Born from the nativity
He gave the greatest gift
His life for eternity
The Very Essence Of Christmas
Jesus
