Father, our hearts we lift
Up to Thy gracious throne,
And thank Thee for the precious gift
Of Thine incarnate Son!

The gift unspeakable
We thankfully receive,
And to the world Thy goodness tell,
And to Thy glory live.

Jesus, the holy Child,
Does, by His birth, declare
That God and man are reconciled,
And one in Him we are.

A peace on earth He brings
Which never more shall end:
The Lord of hosts, the King of kings,
Declares Himself our friend.

His kingdom from above
He does to us impart,
And pure benevolence and love
O'erflow the faithful heart.

Changed in a moment, we
The sweet attraction find,
With open arms of charity
Embracing all mankind.

Charles Wesley

Thanks be unto God for His unspeakable gift.

2 Corinthians 9:15

Copied from my grandmother’s hymnal, Hymn Book of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. Publishing House of the M. E. Church, South: Nashville, TN, 1901, Hymn #66.

Note: This hymn is in the public domain. Also, the hymns in this hymnal are not titled. So when I do not know the hymn, I generally use the first line as the title.
