This child, now weak in infancy, our confidence and joy shall be, the power of Satan breaking, our peace eternal making. 2 This night of wonder, night of joy, was born the Christ, our brother; he comes, not mighty to destroy, to bid us love each other. How could he quit his kingly state for such a world of greed and hate? What deep humiliation secured the world's salvation! 3 Come, dearest child, into our hearts, and leave your crib behind you! Let this be where the new life starts for all who seek and find you. To you the honor, thanks, and praise, for all your gifts this time of grace; come, conquer and deliver this world, and us, forever. Scripture: Luke 2:8-14 Used With Tune: ERMUNTRE DICH
