the light has come into the world

the people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined. (isaiah 9:2)

that was the true light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. he was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. he came unto his own, and his own received him not. but as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. (john 1:9-13)

joy to the world, the Lord has come
let earth receive her king
let every heart prepare him room
and heaven and nature sing!
