Heaven's Perfect Gift

Heaven’s Perfect Gift

 

Wrapped up snug

Was God’s love.

Given to the world, a blessing,

One of whom the angels did sing.

 

Placing Him in the appointed time,

To make all the world right in His sight.

The only remedy, the only cure…

Heaven’s perfect gift so pure.

 

Emptying heaven of its greatest treasure,

His love is without measure.

Love indeed came down to earth

The day of our Savior’s birth.

 

He grew in stature and grace,

All the while giving the Father praise.

For God sent His Son,

Heaven’s perfect gift, the only One.

 

Jesus who is the Light,

Shed forth His might.

Giving up His life

So we would be eternally alive.

 

Christ defeated death

When again, He reclaimed His breath.
And soon, to the Father did He lift.

Heaven’s perfect gift.
