Bring Not The Crown ...
~Marge Tindal~ 1999

The star came beckoning
those from afar ...
Come see the babe who's born !

See him in the stable bare,
wrapped in swaddling clothes.
Watch the love in his mother's eyes
as the cattle sing him to sleep.

Come one, come all
to the tiny place
called Bethlehem.
Come see what God has given
to save you from your sins.

Come with gifts
this babe to adorn.
Bring not the crown,
laden with thorns.

Bring your praise,
your voices sweet,
this is the babe
with nails in his feet.

This is the babe
whose love will teach.
A world of sinners,
he will reach.

Look into the eyes
of this babe born to man ...
then look at what he gave,
look if you can.

Fall to your knees ,
sing this babe a soft lullaby.
Thank you, baby Jesus,
for all you've given for me.

This babe born to set you free,
this babe who loves you so.
Give thanks to the babe,
and his Father on high.
This babe, this babe,
born to set you free.

Oh, what joy
is ours today,
because he loved us so.
This babe born in a stable,
has given us eternity.
