Love came down at Christmas,

Love all lovely, love divine;
Love was born at Christmas,
Stars and angels gave the sign.
2
Worship we the Godhead,

Love incarnate, love divine;
Worship we our Jesus:
But wherewith for sacred sign?
3
Love shall be our token,

Love be yours and love be mine,
Love to God and all men,
Love for plea and gift and sign.

12From Egypt to Nazareth



19 After Herod was dead, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt. 20 The angel said to him,
"Get up, take the child and his mother, and go to Israel. Those who tried to kill the child are dead."

21 Joseph got up, took the child and his mother, and went to Israel. 22 But when he heard that Archelaus had succeeded his father Herod as king of Judea, Joseph was afraid to go there.

Warned in a dream, he left for Galilee 23 and made his home in a city called Nazareth.

So what the prophets had said came true: "He will be called a Nazarene."
Matthew Chapter 2

40 The child grew and became strong. He was filled with wisdom, and God's favor was with him.
Luke Chapter 2
