Here is a new contemporary hymn celebrating the One who came as a baby to bring the dawn of our salvation.
From the album, “Our Holy Infant King,” a collection of 10 original contemporary Christian Christmas songs, celebrating the wonder and joy of the Incarnation and the power of the Son of God who took on flesh to save us from our sins!
Come Exalt the Holy Infant King
Children lift your eyes above,
See the wondrous Lord of Love,
He descending to the earth,
Saves our souls by this his birth.
We the broken, filled with fear,
Now behold his Advent here.
Angel voices fill the sky,
Here to sing as God draws nigh.
Raise your voices, sing as one,
For the perfect holy Son.
He our Lord and helpless child,
One so lowly, meek and mild.
Glory in the highest, glory now to God,
Peace on earth and all good will to men.
Mighty shepherd saves us, with his staff and rod,
He our perfect Savior, our Amen.
He has brought salvation to our weary broken souls,
Christ the Lord, to him we rise and sing.
He who sleeps in manger stall, the One who now consoles,
Come exalt the holy infant King.
Shepherds watching flocks by night,
See the angel shining bright.
Calls them to surrender fear,
For Messiah now draws near.
Angel armies sing as one,
Come to herald God the Son,
Fill the earth with mighty praise.
Set the evening skies ablaze.
Shepherds now with joy make haste,
They with love have now been graced.
Now to Bethlehem they seek,
Mighty babe so mild and meek.
Glory in the highest, glory now to God,
Peace on earth and all good will to men.
Mighty shepherd saves us, with his staff and rod,
He our perfect Savior, our Amen.
He has brought salvation to our weary broken souls,
Christ the Lord, to him we rise and sing.
He who sleeps in manger stall, the One who now consoles,
Come exalt the holy infant King.
Choirs of angels singing,
Good News they are bringing,
Dearest dawn awaking,
Human life remaking.
God with us now dwelling,
Future hope foretelling,
He, the Son, our reason,
For this joyful season.
Baby sleeps upon the hay,
He to walk the narrow way.
All our sorrows now dispelled,
Not a blessing is withheld.
With our God we will abide,
As his holy spotless bride,
Marching on to heaven’s shores,
With the One our heart adores.
Raise your voices, sing as one,
For the perfect holy Son.
He our Lord and helpless child,
One so holy, meek and mild.
Glory in the highest, glory now to God,
Peace on earth and all good will to men.
Mighty shepherd saves us, with his staff and rod,
He our perfect Savior, our Amen.
He has brought salvation to our weary broken souls,
Christ the Lord, to him we rise and sing.
He who sleeps in manger stall, the One who now consoles,
Come exalt the holy infant King.
