O Primeiro Natal
Hinário Presbiteriano Novo Cântico
The First Christmas
Behold, an angel proclaimed the first Christmas
To some poor shepherds near Bethlehem
Who in the fields watching their flock, after all
Endured the cold of the night as well
Christmas! Christmas! Christmas! Christmas!
The Divine King is coming into the world!
Suddenly in the sky, a beautiful star appeared
And in the east shone with strange brightness
A strong light came to earth, falling from the sky
Many nights, still, in radiant splendor
Christmas! Christmas! Christmas! Christmas!
The Divine King is coming into the world!
Such a star appeared and guided the wise men
On the road to Bethlehem, leading them in the right direction
And arriving there, finally, the star stopped
Right above the house where Jesus was
Christmas! Christmas! Christmas! Christmas!
The Divine King is coming into the world!
And the wise men, with eagerness and sublime fear
Bowed their knees in that place
To offer generous gifts, and of rare value
Such as incense, gold, and myrrh, to give to the child
Christmas! Christmas! Christmas! Christmas!
The Divine King is coming into the world!
And like them, we come with intense fervor
To give sincere praises to the one who loved us
To worship with all our hearts the Supreme Lord
Who, dying on the cross, saved our souls!
Christmas! Christmas! Christmas! Christmas!
The Divine King is coming into the world!
Christmas! Christmas! Christmas! Christmas!
The Divine King is coming into the world!
