For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord (Luke 2:11 ESV).
Good news from heaven the angels bring,
Glad tidings to the earth they sing:
To us this day a child is given,
To crown us with the joy of heaven.
—Martin Luther
God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son (John 3:16 ERV).

What can I give Him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb.

Tell the world that the Lord has come.

The friendly beasts around Him stood.
Jesus, our Savior, kind and good.

Our finest gifts we bring,
To lay before the King.

Christmas candle, brightly beam,
Through the darkness ever gleam.
Shed your light that all may know
Christ has come to Earth below!

O Christmastime, O Christmastime!
Always live in my heart and mind.
