The Perfect Gift!

Happy birthday, Jesus, enjoy it to the max, Look down from Heaven with a heart-filled joy, Every heart among us that finds time to relax Reflects again on Mary's baby boy... Nativity's the reason that love gets shared abroad, The Christmas Gospel carols sung once more, Remembering the One, Good Shepherd, King and Lord That all God's holy angels yet adore... And who are we today to differ from their love, At distance from the Saviour You still are? Like wise men from afar, we ought to look above And humbly choose to gaze beyond each star... For blessings still unfold, revealed as prophets told, More precious than the present days on Earth, Yet blessed if we behold, God's Son, as good as gold, More precious than this sad world should deserve... Happy birthday, Jesus, enjoy it to the max, Look down from Heaven with a heart so glad, Of all that trust Your Name, there's not one soul that lacks... You're the most perfect gift we've ever had...
