Series: The Son of God, Our Lord
Two Natures
December 19, 2021 | Mike Stancak
Christ takes on humanity fully. This idea of incarnation is different than any other we encounter in world religion, and it is the reason why Christ is approachable to us. He can meet our needs because he came to us needy. Christ was full of steadfast love and faithfulness, compassionate and lowly in heart, and he can sympathize with us in all our weakness. All this is only possible because Christ did not just appear to be human; he took on humanity to the uttermost.

Light of The World (Sing Hallelujah)
We The Kingdom
Light of the world Treasure of heaven
Brilliant like the stars in the wintery sky
Joy of the father Reach through the darkness
Shine across the earth Send the shadows to flight
Light of the world from the begin - ning
The tragedies of time were no match for your love
From great heights of glory You saw our story
God you entered in and be - came one of us
Sing hallelujah Sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah for the things he has done
Come and adore him bow down before him
Sing hallelujah to the light of the world
Light of the world crown in a manger
Born for the cross to suffer, to save
High king of heaven death is the poorer
We are the richer by the price that he paid
Light of the world soon will be coming
With fire in his eyes He will ransom his own
Through clouds he will lead us straight into glory
And there he shall reign Forever - more
Forevermore
O Holy Night
O holy night night the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior’s birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope the weary world re - joices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
Fall on your knees O hear the angels voices
O ni - ght di - vine O night when Christ was born
Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains He shall break for the slave is our brother
And in His Name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us praise His holy Name
Christ is the Lord
O praise His Name for - ever
His po - wer and glory ever - more
Evermore pro - claim

Go Tell It On The Mountain
Traditional Christmas Hymn
Go tell it on the moun - tain over the hills and ev'rywhere
Go tell it on the moun - tain that Jesus Christ is born
While shepherds kept their watching O'er silent flocks by night
Behold through - out the heavens There shone a holy light
The shepherds feared and trembled when lo! Above the earth,
Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Saviour's birth.
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere;
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.
Down in a lowly manger the humble Christ was born
And brought us God's salvation that blessed Christmas morn
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Jesus Christ is born
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Savior of the world.
