When I gaze upon the baby Jesus, And realize He is my God; Who came into this broken world, To save me where I trod. Then my eyes fill with tears, From the love it provokes; And I can only praise Him, And in His love soak. He came as a human, So He always understands; The tears we often shed, And the quaking of our hands. This is the season of hope and joy, He has brought my soul peace; From the penalties of my sins, I now have release. So ring the bells in church towers, People, sing to Him your praise; For Jesus Christ, our living Lord, Brings wholeness to these days.
