lyrics

When the Lord came down,
Well it made no sound,
Just a little light, mid the noisy night,
When the Lord came down.

While Joseph prayed,
Outside he paced,
If this was all God’s plan,
He couldn’t understand,
While Joseph prayed.

When Mary cried,
She held Jesus tight,
She was all alone,
Far from her home,
When Mary cried.

As the Angels sang,
Through the worlds it rang,
The tyranny we’d known,
Was being overthrown,
As the Angels sang.

What the shepherds saw,
In the filth and straw,
Was the King of kings,
In raw humility,
What the shepherds saw.

Holy, holy, holy, here we fall,
With shouts of joy and tears of awe.
For while we were still in love with our sin,
And hating him, God entered in.
To show all the scared the weight of his love,
And sparing none, he gave up his only Son.

When they gave his name,
They been told he'd save.
They hoped he just might,
They didn't know how right,
When they gave his name.
