Lyrics:
“God Became Flesh With Us to Dwell”
Tune: THE FIRST NOEL (“The First Noel”)
Text: Anna Strickland, 2022
Music: Traditional English carol
From Galilee to Bethlehem
Did Joseph and Mary their journey begin
Many miles from home without a room
Emmanuel came forth from Mary’s womb
Refrain:
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
God became flesh with us to dwell
Abiding in the fields that night
The shepherds saw a radiant light
When angels came to fill the sky
Breaking into earth from heaven on high
Refrain
The shepherds went as the angels had said
To a manger in town with haste they sped
And there as earth and heaven converged
They shared with the parents all that had occurred
Refrain
