A Baby so special, a Baby so sweet
Born of a virgin mother
With tiny hands and beautiful feet
The Son of God a child like no other
Born King, Saviour and of David's kin
To take away, yes to take away all sin.
Happy Birthday Lord Jesus
Happy Birthday Dear King
We look forward to Christmas
And what joy and Glory Your birth certainly did bring
Happy birthday Lord Jesus we will always sing.
Shepherds went in search of the newborn King that night
To worship God's Son and one and only light
For the skies had been filled with rejoicing angels just before
Awestruck,the flocktenders with faces shinning ans so bright,
Knelt before the Child wrapped in swaddling clothes and praised Him in delight!
As Mary sat pondering about the future and what was in store.
Happy Birthday Lord Jesus
Happy Birthday Dear King
We look forward to Christmas
And what joy and Glory Your birth certainly did bring
Happy birthday Lord Jesus we will always sing.
In a manger He lay
In Bethlehem, oh Bethlehem!
Wise men would find the Young Child oneday,
Following a very bright star that guided them
Golg, myrrh and frankincense each man came bearing gift
For this Great Child in praise, all hands would someday lift!
Happy Birthday Lord Jesus
Happy Birthday Dear King
We look forward to Christmas
And what joy and Glory Your birth certainly did bring
Happy birthday Lord Jesus we will always sing.
