165. Love Came Down at Christmas

1 Love came down at Christmas,
Love all lovely, Love divine;
Love was born at Christmas;
star and angels gave the sign.

2 Worship we the Godhead,
Love incarnate, Love divine;
Worship we our Jesus,
but where is God's sacred sign?

3 Love shall be our token;
love be yours and love be mine;
Love to God and neighbor,
love for plea and gift and sign.
