"WONDERFUL BIRTH TO A MANGER HE CAME..."

 

"WONDERFUL BIRTH TO  A MANGER HE CAME..."

"...Wrought our redemption and when 

       He arose, banished forever

           the last of our foes...."

         Presbyterian Church, Taiban, N.M.

"Wonderful birth to a manger  He came,

 Made in the likeness of man to proclaim

God's boundless love for a world sick with      sin...

 Pleading with sinners to let Him ..come in...

Wonderful life  full of service so free,

 Friend to the poor and the needy  was he;

Undying goodness to all He bestowed,

 Undying faith in the vilest He showed.

Wonderful death for it meant not defeat,

 Calvary made His great mission complete;

Wrought our redemption and when He arose,

  Banished forever the last of our foes...

Wonderful hope He is coming again,

  Coming  as King o'er the nations to reign;

Glorious promise: His word cannot fail--

His righteous kingdom at last must 

    prevail..."

  CHORUS:

  "Wonderful name He bears

Wonderful crown He wears;

 Wonderful blessings His triumphs afford!

Wonderful Calvary...

  wonderful grace for me;

Wonderful love of my  wonderful  Lord."

   .....Male Quartet  "WONDERFUL".           

            from the  1950's
