Why? part 2

Christmas Carol Quiz.  This is why He came.  We sing it every year, but I encourage you to slowly read it, and allow it to bring you to worship and adore Him.  Awesome Hymns of Truth.

(answers at the bottom, don’t cheat) Italics mine.

Name that Carol:

1. Mild He lays His glory by

Born that man no more may die

Born to raise the sons of earth

Born to give them second birth

2. (has come to) To save us all from Satan's power

When we were gone astray 

...

This day is born a Saviour
Of a pure Virgin bright,
(has come) To free all those who trust in Him
From Satan's power and might.

3. No more let sins and sorrows grow

Nor thorns infest the ground;

He comes to make His blessings flow

Far as the curse is found.

4. In all our trials born to be our friends. 

He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger,

...

Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother.
And in his name all oppression shall cease. 

5. (has come to) ransom captive Israel

...

Thou Rod of Jesse, (has come to) free Thine own from Satan's tyranny

From depths of Hell Thy people save, And give them victory o'er the grave

...

(has come to) Disperse the gloomy clouds of night

And death's dark shadows put to flight

...

(has come to) open wide our heavenly home;

Make safe the way that leads on high,

And close the path to misery. 

6. Peace on the earth, goodwill to men
From heavens all gracious King!

7. Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath made Heaven and earth of nought
And with his blood mankind has bought.

These two are really excited to skype grandparents tomorrow and Sunday!
