Thoughts based on the ‘Sussex Carol’

On Christmas night all Christians sing
To hear the news the angels bring

News of great joy, news of great mirth
News of our merciful King's birth

Then why should men on earth be so sad?
Since our Redeemer made us glad
Then why should men on earth be so sad?
Since our Redeemer made us glad
When from our sin he set us free
All for to gain our liberty?
Acts 13.39; Rom 6.7-22; Rom 8.2; Gal 5.13; Heb 9.15; Rev 1.5
v3 Life and Health
When sin departs before His grace
Then life and health come in its place

Then life and health come in its place

Now and for evermore, amen!"
Is 9.2; Matt 4.16; 5.14-16; John 8.12; 12.46; 1 Peter 2.9
