Awesome Wonder

What awesome wonder comes our way
Through Jesus’ birth on Christmas Day
Our God of mercy seeks to bring
His presence through our newborn King

No sin too great could thwart His plan
Of love immense for every man
Though through our sin we were defiled
Through Jesus’ birth we’re reconciled

Just hear the unborn children sing
“Glory to our newborn king”
And parents who had lived despair
Know that salvation now is here

United in an act of love
Sent down to us from up above
Though through our sin we were defiled
Through Jesus’ birth we’re reconciled

So, God of mercy born anew
We wonder at the love of you
That came to save the human race
By life anew through saving grace

Joined with our unborn now we sing
The Mercy of our newborn King
Though through our sin we were defiled
Through Jesus’ birth we’re reconciled.   (tb)
