Christ My Savior

Text by D. M. Gardner

In Dedication To Our Friends Who Have So Often Shown Us Christ's Love:

The Bishops

Written For The Heritage Singers of Minot, North Dakota.

Christ My Savior is a stirring and deeply introspective setting of the joy and wonder of Christ's birth.  Beyond the traditional nativity, it is a reflection on the profundity of a single simple moment that would affect all of mankind for eternity.  

Christ My Savior

Christ, my Savior,
Light within my soul,
My Savior,
Born to make me whole.

I see a star
Still twinkling in my mind,
Shining brightly,
Piercing through the night;
My path before me
Lit with wondrous light.

Christ, my Savior,
Joy within my heart,
My Savior,
Born to play His part.

Sounds of new life
Break the silent night,
And my heart cries out with joy!
A Son is born;
A Savior!
A Son is born this night!

Christ, my Savior,
Died to pay my toll,
My Savior,
Born to save my soul.
