Christ came into the world

Though He was in the beginning
the first-born of creation
that all came into being
after the Christ

Christ descending from heaven
Christ came into the world
to redeem us to Him
to heal our brokenness

He lives with us
within our beating hearts
He will come back for us
to gather His people in

We should be singing
in this Advent season
for God gave up immortality
that we may simply live

Only by His power
was sin and death vanquished
preparing a way for us
through the gate of the risen Christ
