Prompt / Lyrics
The road was long, the night was cold The weight of heaven in my soul I found no place to lay His head So love was born where cattle fed The stars leaned close to see His face I held my breath in holy space The promise whispered through the years Was crying softly in my ears I held the Son of God tonight The Word made flesh beneath my eyes I don’t understand, but I believe That heaven’s King now rests with me I held the Son of God tonight Her trembling hands wrapped Him in cloth The One who spoke the world to us The same small hands that formed the skies Now reached for me with newborn cries And though I’m just a simple man You chose my heart to hold Your plan To raise the child who’d wear the crown To lift the world and lay it down I held the Son of God tonight The Word made flesh beneath my eyes I don’t understand, but I believe That heaven’s King now rests with me I held the Son of God tonight How could I teach the Lord to walk When He’s the One who taught the stars to talk? How could I show the way to stand When all creation rests in His hands? Still You called me “Father” through Your tears And I’ll protect You all my years I held the Son of God tonight Love wrapped in grace, wrapped up in light And though the world won’t see just yet The cross and crown are in this breath I held the Son of God tonight Sleep now, my King… I’ll hold the Son of God tonight
