For His ‘royal invitation’ I will ever give Him praise.

“Christmas”
Jesus, the Royal Babe from heaven, Light of all Life, whom angels praise,
Gives a royal invitation, “Come to Me,” O praise His glorious ways.
Jesus, Desire of Every Nation, Light of The World, God’s perfect Son,
Gives a royal invitation, “Come to Me,” I praise You, Holy One.
Jesus, Prince of Peace, Messiah, Savior, born on Christmas morn,
Worshiped in a humble stable, shepherds knew God’s Son was born.
With great joy He left His glory; all for love, Emmanuel,
Praise Him for salvation’s story—God, made man, in hearts to dwell.
Jesus, our miracle from heaven, God’s only Son, for love He came,
Gives a royal invitation, “Come to Me,” O praise His name.
Jesus, the Splendor of the Heavens, praised, adored as God and King,
Gives a royal invitation, “Come to Me,” all His praises I will sing.
Honored ‘neath the starry wonder, kings adored with pure delight
As God’s royal gift so holy, glory to the Prince of Light.
Praise to God up in the highest, praise forever, praise acclaim,
For His royal invitation, I will ever praise His holy name,
I will ever praise His Holy name.
