Be Born in Us

Empires and nations, with their mighty armies, could not achieve what God accomplished through a baby, “. . .to us a child is born. . .a son is given” (Isaiah 9:6).

O holy Child of Bethlehem,
descend to us, we pray;
cast out our sin, and enter in,
be born in us today.
(Phillips Brooks, 1835-1893, https://www.umcdiscipleship.org/resources/history-of-hymns-o-little-town-of-bethlehem)
