Do you know that this is Christmas,
And this little book is sent
As a messenger of One who
Came to earth with good intent?
Came to earth, left home in glory,
On that first cold Christmas day,
And He’s left this as a token,
Showing us the right of way.
When you ponder o’er its pages,
Think of how the Savior died,
How He suffered men’s outrages,
Loved them, yet was crucified.
Can we count redemption’s treasure,
Scan the glory of God’s love?
Such shall be the boundless measure
Of His blessings from above.
When the Christmases are over,
And the Savior comes again,
May you join the happy chorus,
And in glory be ordained.
