This World

This world, this world
This old world will never be the same
Since the Son of God was born a little baby in Bethlehem
This world, this world
This old world will never be the same
Since the Son of God was born a little baby in Bethlehem
Lost world in despair
Christ came to answer prayer
Peace did the angels sing
And presented the earth its newborn king
(repeat Chorus)
Hated by His own
Dying all alone
Crucified that day
For the sins of the world, He had to pay
(repeat Chorus)
As in days of yore
Teaching by the shore
Jesus, speak again
To a world that’s filled with war and pain
(repeat Chorus)
Come, oh Christ, our King
Peace on earth to bring
Come Lord, from above
'Cause we’ll never know peace till we have Your love
This world
(repeat Chorus)
