HE'LL BE GREAT

by Teresita Perez

(My lyrics to Jingle Bells)

1.
Happy Mary is
since Gabriel said one night,
"Hail, you are highly favored,
humble mother of Christ.
Quiet soon you shall conceive
the Seed of blessed fame.
And the child that will be born,
Lord Jesus is His name."

Chorus:
Oh! He'll be great.
He'll be called the son of the Most High.
Over Jacob's house He'll reign
and guide them to the light.
He'll be great
and will love, all women and all men.
Upon David's throne He'll sit.
His kingdom will never end.

2.
Mary answered then,
"I'm a servant of God.
May it be as you've spoken.
I'm honored; and I'm glad."
Gabriel went away.
He left her filled with joy.
And just as he had said,
Mary had a baby boy.

3.
Jesuschrist was born
in a manger in the dark.
And when I heard about it
He was born in my heart.
I love to tell the story
of the Savior of our race.
And a day not very far off
I will see Him face to face.
