God in flesh

This is not the night for despair
For a star has risen on high 
This is not the time for sadness 
For your redemption draweth nigh 
Oh lift up your weary head
Oh poor soul do awake 
Go forth and sing your praises 
For God will not forsake 

It's time for Holy mass
On this cold Christmas Eve 
It's time to go forth in joy 
No longer poor sinner grieve 
For God has come to rescue
Behold He becomes man 
The Son of God in meekness
To fulfil the Fathers plan 

Awake, awake
Oh my soul do awake
I long to eat the Bread 
Of life, oh how I ache 
For the bread of heaven 
Manna has come down 
In the manger in Bethlehem 
God in flesh has now been found
