Today We Celebrate Jesus Birthday – Hymn Lyric
Today we celebrate Jesus’ birthday,
That prophets spoke of long ago.
God sent His Son to save us from sin
And show us how we should live.
Born to a virgin, poor and lowly,
Laid in a manger,
Our precious Lamb of God!
Sing our praises to our King!
Sing our praises, let them ring!
Jesus Christ is born today!
Angels proclaimed to shepherds at night that
Jesus was born in Bethlehem.
Quickly with joy they ran to the manger
Where the baby Christ-Child lay.
Bowing in worship, awe, and wonder,
They knelt before their
Dear little King of kings!
Sing all praises to the King!
Sing all praises, let them ring!
Jesus Christ is born today!
Come, celebrate our Lord Jesus’ birthday,
Know that to save us He has come;
Accept His gift of love and salvation;
Let us crown Him Lord of all!
For He alone is worthy of glory,
Worthy of honor,
And all our praises!
Sing our praises to our King!
Sing our praises, let them ring!
Jesus Christ is born today!
Jesus Christ is born today!
Meaning of Today We Celebrate Jesus Birthday
As we find ourselves gathered in reflection and celebration of a momentous event, one can sense a profound transformation taking place within and around us. Its a time of both deep reverence and compelling joy, as we remember the birth of Jesus Christ, an event prophesied long ago, an event that continues to ripple through time, touching hearts and souls with its profound significance.
Imagine, for a moment, the quiet night in Bethlehem. Picture a humble manger, the earthy scent of hay, the calmness of animals nearby, and an overwhelming sense of expectancy hanging in the air. Into this simple yet extraordinary scene, a baby is bornJesus, the Son of God. He comes not as a mighty warrior or a king in a palace, but as a vulnerable infant in the most modest of settings. The inherent humility of His birth speaks to us on many levels, inviting us to explore our own vulnerabilities and the beauty that lies within them.
In our journey of self-discovery, let us consider the aspects of our lives that mirror the simplicity and purity of that Bethlehem night. How often do we hide our vulnerabilities, fearing they make us less than, rather than celebrating them as a testament to our humanity? Jesus birth in humbleness is a profound reminder that true strength and divinity can manifest in the most unassuming circumstances. It teaches us to embrace our humanity, with all its perceived imperfections, as a sacred and integral part of who we are.
The shepherds, upon hearing the angels’ proclamation, ran with joy to witness the miracle. They didnt pause due to their lowly status or question their worthiness. In their awe and wonder, they simply knelt before the newborn King. In this spontaneous act of worship, there lies an invitation for us too. Can we approach our moments of joy, awe, and spiritual epiphany with the same openness and unconditional acceptance? Can we kneel before our deepest truths, surrendering our doubts and embracing our spiritual essence with humble reverence?
To celebrate Jesus birth is to accept His gift: the gift of love, salvation, and divine guidance. It’s a call to crown Him as the Lord of our lives and to acknowledge His worthiness of all glory and honor. This act of crowning isnt just about a title; its about prioritizing love and compassion as the central pillars of our human experience. It’s about recognizing that each of us, in our everyday actions, holds the power to breathe life into the divine teachings of love, kindness, and sacrifice.
As we sing our praises and let them ring out, we are not just participating in a ritual; we are connecting with a spiritual lineage that spans centuries. We are affirming our place within a tapestry of believers who have found strength, hope, and meaning in the message of Christ’s birth. In these moments of collective celebration, we find a deeper connection to those around us and to the world at large. We are reminded that, despite our individual struggles and triumphs, we are united in our quest for spiritual fulfillment and peace.
So, as we celebrate this sacred event, let us also embark on a personal journey of introspection.

In embracing our humanity and honoring our spiritual essence, we discover a profound connection not only to ourselves but to the divine and to each other.
