Happy Birthday, Jesus,
On this, your special day,
Such a tiny baby,
Lying in the hay.

God incarnate, came to earth,
All mankind to save,
Such a cost, sweet Jesus,
The price you had to pay.

I am not worth those nail scared hands,
But you sure loved me so.
To give your life for all of us,
So salvation we might know.

I love you, my sweet Saviour,
And talk to you each day.
You intercede at God's right hand,
The things I have to say.

I pray the world will come to know
You and your love so true,
Oh Happy Birthday, Jesus,
I'm thinking today of you.

Help me precious Jesus,
To live each day for you,
So others will see you in me,
And want salvation too.

Thank you precious Savior,
From the bottom of my heart,
For being born, and then forlorn,
God's love to thus impart.

Happy Birthday, Jesus,
Oh may the whole world know,
That on that silent Holy night,
God came to earth below.
