Two Thousand Years Since Bethlehem
Author: Brian Hoare, 1935- Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Lyrics: 1 Two thousand years since Bethlehem
first welcomed Jesus' birth:
the startling truth began to dawn
that God had come to earth.
And as he grew and lived and taught
a different way unfurled:
a way of joy and love and peace,
a new start for the world!
2 Two thousand years since Galilee
where Jesus preached and healed;
in words of truth and works of power
God's kingdom was revealed.
As young and old and rich and poor
responded to his call,
they found what we may find today:
a new start for us all!
3 Two thousand years since Calvary,
the hill where Jesus died;
the Lamb of God, the sinless one,
for me was crucified.
But soon he rose up from the grave
to reign in victory;
good news I scarcely can believe;
a new start won for me!
4 Two thousand years since Pentecost:
the Holy Spirit came
in sound of mighty, rushing wind
and tongues of living flame;
a gift to all who will believe
and live the Jesus way;
the power of God we may receive,
a new start from today!
5 Two thousand years of Christian faith
have changed our history,
for Jesus is the Lord of time
and of eternity.
For all who seek a better way,
than failure, sin and pain,
still Jesus Christ makes all things new:
a chance to start again! Used With Tune: FOREST GREEN

Stay, My Child, My Body Sharing
Author: Anna Briggs (1947-) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.7.3 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Matthew 2 Lyrics: 1 Stay, my child, my body sharing.
Girlhood's peace from me is torn;
well I know a mother's fearing,
hope miscarried, joy stillborn.
Lullaby, lullaby,
God has heard a mother's cry, lullaby.
2 Grow, my child, in body chosen
by the God who made the earth;
mine the answer, in confusion,
young, unready to give birth.
Lullaby, lullaby,
God awaits a baby's cry, lullaby.
3 Sleep, my child, for love surrounds us;
we have not been left alone.
Though disgrace and shame may hound us,
Joseph stays and shields his own.
Lullaby, lullaby,
Word of God in baby's cry, lullaby.
4 Wake, my child, the world is crying,
calls you, evil's power to cross;
opens you to early dying,
motherhood's most dreaded loss.
Lullaby, lullaby,
pain of God in mother's cry, lullaby.
5 Go, my child, grace protect you,
shape your living, fill your breath;
by its power to resurrect you,
break the grip of fear and death.
Lullaby, lullaby,
hope for all in mother's cry, lullaby. Topics: Christmas; Mary; Christian Year; Epiphany Used With Tune: DANIEL'S
