YouTube video: Imagine This New Baby Jesus

See text below:

Imagine this new Baby Jesus; Imagine the manger so rare.

Imagine Him lying on sweet-smelling hay, And then of his mother’s kind care.

Imagine true Joseph responding To Mary and her every need.

Imagine him holding this Son in his arms, Then pondering how he would lead.

Imagine small sheep and their shepherds On hillsides in darkness of night.

Imagine the stars shining brightly above; Imagine them bringing such light.

Imagine true words from the angels: “Fear not; it’s a sign unto you.”

Imagine them running with greatest of haste In search of this Baby so new.

Imagine the three wise men traveling Far into the lands of his birth.

Imagine them carrying treasures of wealth Selected because of great worth.

Imagine the camels they rode on For days as they looked in the sky.

Imagine the joy when they finally arrived; Imagine Him being nearby.

Imagine this new Baby Jesus; Imagine his childhood there.

Imagine his years as He grew and He learned; Imagine the cross He would bear.

Remember the life He assured us, His promise to give and to lift.

Imagine, this Christmas, of kneeling so close And offering love as a gift.
