As a baby Jesus came
From His home above
He left His throne and who He was
To teach us how to love
As a baby Jesus came
Wrapped in swaddling cloth
Willingly took on humanity
Though He was one with God
As a baby Jesus came
To one day grow to be
The saviour of the human race
People like you and me
As a baby Jesus came
As God’s eternal light
That will never be extinguished
But forever shine out bright
As a baby Jesus came
The hope of eternal life
Reconciling us back to God
Giving meaning to our lives
As a man Jesus died
His blood poured out for all
Cleansing and forgiving us
For to this He was called
We thank Him that He came a babe
And grew to be a man
And for His sacrificial love
His nailed scarred feet and hands
Through it all we can live on
With Jesus Christ our Lord
The babe that came that first Christmas
Is what we thank Him for
