Herein Lieth Love (poem)

A man child was born in a stable they say-
Herein lieth love.
He came to this earth a ransom to pay-
Herein lieth love.
His blood was the price of redemption for me.
He paid the cost while nailed up on a tree.
He was in bondage to set me free-
Herein lieth love.

This unselfish act has freed me from sin-
Herein lieth love.
To heaven now, freely, I may enter in-
Herein lieth love.
The thirty three years from manger to cross
were all lived to show me just what it cost
Our God to redeem those that are lost-
Herein lieth love.
