A Child Is Born

Bow down, bow down,

Your Savior now has come.

 

Look up, look up,

The angels’ song is sung.

 

So low, so low,

In circumstances born.

 

A child, a child,

A small and humble one.

 

He comes, He comes

To take away your sin.

 

Within, within,

Look in your heart for Him.

 

Rejoice, rejoice;

He takes away your sin.

Jesus Waiting

I wait for you in long, dark days,

In silent places far from crowds.

 

I wait for love’s most tender words,

For glances with your love so full.

 

I wait, and do not force myself

On hearts that are not ready yet.

 

I wait until that day you come

And we will then be one at last.
