When I Think Upon Christmas
[Verse 1]
When I think upon Christmas, words can't express
How our Father in heaven has sent us His best
To be born in a manger, the King in the hay
And creation will worship His name

[Chorus 1]
For the joy of the world He was born
Bringing peace to us all through the gift of the Son
Now the darkest of ages are done
For the Saviour of heaven has come

[Verse 2]
When I think upon Jesus, the King of all days
I can't help but respond with an off'ring of praise
Like the wise men and shepherds, I'll follow Your light
Like the angels, I'll lift Your name high

[Chorus 2]
For the joy of the world You were born
Bringing peace to us all through the gift of Your love
Now the darkest of ages are done
For the Saviour of heaven has come

[Interlude]
[Chorus 2]
For the joy of the world You were born
Bringing peace to us all through the gift of Your love
Now the darkest of ages are done
For the Saviour of heaven has come

[Verse 3]
Now I look back in rev'rence to that holy night
For the God of the heavens had us on His mind
Let us sing of His glory, rejoice in His name
Oh, Emmanuel with us always
And forever His kingdom will reign
