In The First Light - Point of Grace

In the first light of a new day no one knew he had arrived

Things continued as they had been while a newborn softly cried

But the heavens wrapped in wonder knew the meaning of his birth

In the weakness of a baby they knew God had come to earth

As his mother held him closely it was hard to understand

That her baby, not yet speaking, was the word of God to man

He would tell them of his kingdom but their hearts would not believe

They would hate him and in anger they would nail him to a tree

But the sadness would be broken as the song of life arose

And the firstborn of creation would ascend and take his throne

He had left it to redeem us but before his life began

He knew he’d come back, not as a baby, but as the Lord of every man

Hear the angels as they’re singing on the morning of his birth

But how much greater will our song be when he comes again to earth

Hear the angels as they’re singing on the morning of his birth

But how much greater will our song be when he comes to rule the earth!
