1
Born among the peasant strangers
God incarnate came to earth
Through His poverty bore riches in the myst’ry of His birth
God of ev’ry generation reaching out to all mankind
How relentless His pursuing as He draws us to His light
2
From the dawn of all creation God the Father in His love
Offered up for our redemption Jesus Christ His only Son
God of ev’ry generation reaching out to all mankind
How relentless His pursuing as He draws us to His light
3
Through the heart of all believers worship echoes age to age
Hear the church her saints proclaiming
Jesus Christ was born to save
God of ev’ry generation reaching out to all mankind
How relentless His pursuing as He draws us to His light
