The Birth

Two thousand years ago, something very special happened,

In a small town, Bethlehem, a child was born.

It was not a usual birth,

It was the greatest event in the history of the Earth.

 

One new star came to enlighten the world.

It was Jesus Christ, our Lord.

He came to teach us the truth.

The truth is that only He can save us!

 

God has sent Him to free us.

We are freed from eternal death through Jesus,

He forgives all our transgressions,

Then, with God, we have a true connection.

 

All praise and glory be given to the Lord,

Even though we are flawed, He loved us.

Giving his only son to rescue us,

He has paid a very high price,

To do the will of the Father.

Hears and Does not Practice

The words of God, many people will hear,

They hear the message only to get happier,

But in their lives, nothing will change.

The statutes of God, they will not practice.

They became someone like a believer-atheist,

They act like God did not exist.

The name of the Lord is always on their lips,

But their lives show they do not fear Him.

They are doing everything for self-satisfaction,

They want to fulfill all their desires and imaginations.

The instructions coming from God, they will negate,

Because they know they do not follow good ways.

They still use these audacious words:

There was never any wickedness in our works.

These words will testify against them,

It will be shown the evil made by their hands.

Before the Lord, they will suffer the accusation,

There will be no way to be free of condemnation.

In their lives, they forgot the Lord in all moments,

And after death, they will perish with pain and torment.
