ON ANGEL'S WINGS
ON ANGELS WINGS
On angles wings the good news came,
Emmanuel with us – Jesus His name,
Born to live, that all should know
He came to die, so that we would go
To heaven above, to see the King,
His love abounds in everything.
So, as we come to Christmas now,
Reflect on Him and on your life,
And somehow ask yourself
If you are worthy,
To live your life in this earthly place,
Or should you be down upon your face
In prayer to Him, To ask for grace.
We are all individuals, this of course we know,
But how we live our lives, our nation it does show
To the world, our love or hate,
It’s not too late to correct it mate.
Come down from your lofty pride on high,
Jesus is down here – not up there in the sky.
