Love Magnificent

A million stars illuminate the skies
As shepherds watched their flock of sheep by night
Bethlehem of old, a prophecy foretold
There God's incarnate Word took on flesh

A multitude of heavenly host praised God of heaven and earth
For unto us is born, the Saviour of the world

Jesus, You came, You dwelled with us
Everlasting God and King
Yet You gave Your everything
No other worthy of outstanding praise
Jesus, You said, peace be on earth
Star of hope and majesty
Yet You came to set me free

Darkness fell across the barren plain
As heaven watched, the Son gave up His strength
The innocent became, the Lamb who took my shame. No greater than this for you and me

Jesus, You came, You dwelled with us
Everlasting God and mighty King
Yet You gave Your everything
No other worthy of outstanding praise
Jesus, You said, peace be on earth
Star of hope and majesty
Yet You came to set me free
