					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>THAT WE MIGHT LIVE</p>
<p>He was born that we might live<br />
He was born that we might sing<br />
He was born that we might know<br />
The love of God</p>
<p>He was born that we might seek<br />
He was born that we might understand<br />
He was born that we might know<br />
The joy of God</p>
<p>He was born that He might die<br />
He claimed death that He might save the world<br />
He became life that we might know<br />
The peace of God</p>
<p>He took our curse to the grave<br />
He broke sin’s bond to set us free<br />
He gave us worth,<br />
O to God the glory be</p>
<p><span id="more-3856"></span></p>
<p>HE was born that we might live<br />
He was born that WE might live<br />
He was born that we might LIVE</p>
