Incarnation Song

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Looking down upon this One Seems so easy to embrace That this is just a new born one Just like any other babe And looking down upon this one Crying helplessly He lays In the stillness now He sleeps Just like any other babe [Pre-Chorus] You're lying there, so helpless You're lying there, dependent You're lying there You're unable to stand on Your own You're unable to do anything at all [Verse 2] Looking down upon this one His hands that grasp not hold a thing Yet all the while His mouth does speak He's upholding everything And looking down upon this one His eyes resting so tenderly Yet all the while His eyes you see Full of fire and jealousy [Pre-Chorus] You're lying there, so helpless You're lying there, dependent You're lying there, Yahweh You're unable to stand on Your own You're unable to do anything at all [Chorus] You are Lord God made flesh King of glory coming Crowned in lowliness Christ is born Come to earth God from everlasting Was born a virgin birth [Bridge] Can you hear Him crying Tears streaming down? Can you hear Him crying Hope within Him found? Can you hear Him crying This One who's before time? Can you hear Him crying Yahweh, fully divine? Can you see Him sleep As shepherds watch amazed? Can you see Him sleep As heaven stands to gaze? Can you see Him sleep This One who formed the world? Can you see Him sleep As He cannot speak a word? Can you hear the sound Of angels who rejoice? Can you hear the sound Of the Father's mighty voice? Can you hear the sound "This is my beloved Son"? Can you hear the sound? He is the Chosen One [Chorus] You are Lord God made flesh King of glory coming Crowned in lowliness Christ is born Come to earth God from everlasting Born a virgin birth You are Lord God made flesh King of glory coming Crowned in lowliness Christ is born Come to earth God from everlasting Was born a virgin birth He was born a virgin birth [Outro] The Word became flesh and dwelt among us The Word became flesh and dwelt among us Though He was high He bowed so low Though He was rich He became poor Being found in the appearance as a man You humbled Yourself to the point of death From the stable in the manger You grew In wisdom, stature, and favor with God and with man You grew Day after day and month after month and year after year Your family watched you grow Until finally your time came to die Sacrifice My mind cannot comprehend And great is this mystery that God became a man I say, great is this mystery But I will peer and I will gaze Cause I want to understand This makes me love you more
