THE WONDER OF ALL WONDERS
A Christmas Poem
The Son appeared to men of old,
Such a wonder they did see;
But wonder of all wonders,
Was that Jesus was born for me!
Born there in a humble stable,
And to such a sin cursed earth;
To bring hope to all mankind,
And salvation through his birth.
He came down from heaven's glory,
Not to mansions rich or fair;
But to a lowly virgin,
Sins heavy burden he would bare.
He left his glorious palace,
Was robed in humanity;
To give his life upon the cross,
And this he did for you and me.
He increased in grace and wisdom,
As he took the form of man;
He went about doing good,
Working miracles by his hands!
Yes He healed the broken hearted,
And he set the captives free;
He calmed the raging waters,
And yes, He made the demons flee.
And He fed the hungry thousands,
Yes, He made the blind to see;
But wonder of all wonders,
Was that Jesus was born for me.
Often loving people may speak,
Of their love and care for me;
But the Son of God proved his love,
The day He died on Calvary.
Yes, the wonder of all wonders,
For the entire world to see;
The wonder of all wonders,
Jesus was born to die for me!
