"A faithful ambassador is health" (Proverbs 13:17). "The angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people… The shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us… And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this Child" (Luke 2:10-18).
Ambassadors
should be amazed
At
tidings of our Lord and Savior.
Let
Jesus Christ be greatly praised
By
all who now proclaim His favor!
Like
shepherds sent to Bethlehem
By
the angelic proclamation,
We
ought to be amazed like them
As
we announce so great salvation.
When
shepherds saw the Child born,
They
made the tidings known abroad.
Unmoved
by human praise or scorn,
They
preached the wondrous grace of God.
O
Lord, we are amazed indeed
At
grace this world still ignores
That
satisfies our greatest need
And
makes us Your ambassadors.
