Exult in the Saviour’s Birth
Matt Boswell and D.A. Carson
Verse 1
Shepherds watched their flocks at night, attending lowly sheep;
Now within a cattle shed, a much stranger watch they keep.
Today, a Saviour has been born and He is Christ, the Lord;
Placed within a humble trough, this baby must be adored.
Verse 2
Pagan wise men from the East seek out the infant King;
Trackless miles behind them lie and now all their rev’rence bring.
They have come to worship Him with spices and with gold;
Countless millions seek Him still, who’s advent was long foretold.
Verse 3
For to us a child is born, to us a Son is giv’n;
He shall reign in righteousness, this Counselor King from heav’n.
The government will rest on Him, He is the mighty God;
Prince of Peace, this gentle King yet rules with a mighty rod.
Verse 4
Scriptures say that Mary’s boy was born that he might die;
Angel voices burst in praise, their harmony fills the sky.
Sing, “Glory in the highest heav’n!” Sing, “Gracious peace on earth!”
Those on whom His favor rests, exult in the Saviour’s birth.
