Welcomed as a baby In a manger He lay Shepherds came to greet Him Kings from far away People came to see Him As He taught them truth Everyone that came to Him Found love that He imbued Day turned into darkness He crowds all turned away Soldiers came to take Him No one with Him would stay Beaten, bruised and scarred A crown of thorns He wore Nailed upon a cross His garments they all tore As He hung there bleeding Breath barely possible He cried out to is the Father Please forgive them all Then He died for all mankind His blood shed on that cross Redemption freely given His grace for all of us In three days, He arose Escaped a sealed-up tomb He now abides in Heaven The Lamb upon the throne This grace that He extended He day he came to earth Was finally fulfilled On the cross and with His death Accept His gift of love today And know His peace within He only way to heaven Is forgiveness for your sins For this peace the angels sang of To shepherds in the field Is only yours if you decide Your life to Him to yield He stands there knocking at the door Please open up your heart The baby born this Christmas morn Will give you a new start New life is for the taking The best gift ever given A baby born to die for you The only way to heaven

The Only Way
