The Father looked upon the earth one day
And saw His precious creatures going astray
He knew the only way to bring them up
Was to send His only son to save their soul
So the search began for a humble virgin girl
A man who fear the Lord to be father as well
Some prophets were dispatched to prophesy
That Jesus would be born some day to die
So down came Christ to this sinful world
In a manger was His birth
Peace He brings to men on earth
Christ the Lord
Down came Christ to this sinful world
In a manger was His birth
Peace He brings to men on earth
Christ the Lord
Now all the prophet said has come to pass
For Christ was crucified on the cross at last
And if you'll open up and let Him in
To save your soul and set you free from sin
The time to take the step of faith is now
For when He comes again we all must bow
Before His mighty throne
We'll hear Him tell
If we will walk the path to heaven or hell
Down came Christ to this sinful world
In a manger was His birth
Peace He brings to men on earth
Christ the Lord
Down came Christ to this sinful world
In a manger was His birth
Peace He brings to men on earth
Christ the Lord
