Christmas Eve Meditations

Rejoice
Christ was born today
In a humble manger far away

In David’s city of Bethlehem
He was born to a virgin Mary
The Son of God came as a baby

Angels sung praise
As Jesus slept
His love we who are saved accept

Jesus grew
Into a strong man
He would follow the Father’s plan

Christ the Son of Man
He healed the sick instantly
He can do the same for you and me

Jesus did many miracles
He walked on water without a fault
Peter did too until he had doubt

He raised Lazarus from death to life
Christ cast out demons from men
This fact has never been forgotten

At Calvary, He suffered and died
Christ bore God’s full wrath for our sin
He was our propitiation

On the third day
He rose from the dead
We are saved by Christ’s bloodshed

We are chosen by God
Predestined to salvation
This is cause for our elation

We can never lose our elect status
If we have been regenerated
Our souls are no longer degenerated

One day we will have glorified bodies
We’ll live with Jesus on the new earth
All of this is because of the new birth
