It was the dawning of the day of grace,
It was the dawning of the Day of Grace,
when Christ entered into the Human Race.
The Infinite God confined to a span
Incomprehensibly becoming man.
The angels in heaven looked down in awe
for there in a manger their God they saw.
Now at this new Christmas season may we
the wonder of God's Incarnation see
