Christmas meaning

Gold for Your Kingship,
they brought from afar.
To let everyone know,
just who You really are.

Frankincense because of Your Divinity.
Truly God and Truly man.
You came on a rescue mission,
to save wretched man.

Myrrh because You were born to die.
That was the Father's will,
the one true living sacrifice,
the only way to pay the bill.

The debt we owed was just to great.
A bill we could never pay.
So, You came in a manger,
and was born in the hay.

Angels announces Your coming.
Wise men came from afar.
Shepherd witnessed Your infancy,
as You laid in Your mother's arms.

You were only here at short time,
thirty some odd years and then
You offered Yourself as the sacrifice,
to put an end to the grip of sin.

On a hill outside of town,
they nailed You to a cross,
They thought they were getting
rid of You, but that was just the start.

You came back three days later,
to complete what the Father begun.
And, now Your setting next to Him.
God's only Son.

This is the reason for the season.
In Jesus, all is fulfilled,
So have a Merry Christmas,
and to all Goodwill.

Richard.
