A Christmas psalm

 


Halleluiah!

Praise the Lord.

 

Now my soul praises the Lord,

My spirit rejoices in God my saviour.

 

The Christ Child is born,

The liberator has come.

 

To bring good news to the poor,

And let all the captives go free.

 

To bring God’s kingdom down to earth,

His reign of justice into all the earth.

 

Where all people will be treated fairly,

And everyone is a child of God.

 

A world where love will abound,

And self-sacrifice will be normal practice.

 

In that day the dead will be brought to life,

And all rejoice in the resurrection of Jesus.

 

Praise the Lord,

Halleluiah!
