In this joyous season,
My pen does now record.
A gift to celebrate,
The birthday of our Lord

Jesus, Happy Birthday!
I hope the world does bring,
Their lives unto you lay
All while the angels sing

All I have to give you
Is just a trifle part
Of what you so deserve
But Lord, it’s from my heart

I want to write a letter
So you can surely hear
Of all the things I promise,
To do for you next year

Dear Jesus, blessed King
You are the Son of God.
I’ll trust in you my life
And haste to bring you laud

I’ll lead all my beloved
To you my God to save
And affirm the one in three,
To attest the life you gave

And how I’ll love my wife,
Will be as I love me.
Just as you loved the church,
I’ll guard her purity

I am weeping as I write this
Because my little son,
Will grow to know God’s grace.
In You his sins undone.

I bow in glory Lord,
With sins oh! more than seven
My humble gift is this,
Yours to me is heaven
