Two Thousand Years Ago - RJ Moneypenney

Two Thousand Years Ago

Two thousand years ago once upon a star
Guided by the heavens' glow the magi traveled far
To the town of Bethlehem on Christmas Eve
Three wise men bearing gifts because they believed
Hark hear the angels sing on Heaven high
Hail to the infant king He is born to die
He lived and died for all mankind
To spread the Father's word
A message of eternal life and love
A message to be heard

Two thousand years ago on Christmas day
A baby child was born to light our way
And after twenty centuries the spirit of his quest
Shines like a guiding star the world is truly blessed
Hark hear the angels sing on Heaven high
Hail to the infant king He is still alive
And He lives for all mankind
We celebrate His birth
A symbol of eternal life
And love and peace on earth
