Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tiny hands
Wrapped in straw and hay
The weight of the world
Yet so light today
Eyes so wide
Like they’ve seen it all
A king in a cradle
So humble
So small
[Prechorus]
If I could hold him
Just for a while
Would he feel the cross in my trembling smile
[Chorus]
Oh baby in a manger
Destined to reign
Born for the sorrow
Born for the pain
Savior of souls
Yet so sweet
So mild
What was it like to hold heaven’s child
[Verse 2]
Breath so soft
Like a whispered prayer
Angels bow low
Heaven meets us there
The stars all pause
The night turns still
A sacrifice sleeping
To do the Father’s will
[Prechorus]
If I could hold him
Close to my chest
Would I feel the thorns that would pierce the best
[Chorus]
Oh baby in a manger
Destined to reign
Born for the sorrow
Born for the pain
Savior of souls
Yet so sweet
So mild
What was it like to hold heaven’s child
