a dwindling light flickers in the sky
the end of night is drawing nigh
star of wonder that shown so bright
becomes a shadow in the birth of Light
could this truly be the promised One
defeater of death thy victory won
what held by such tiny hands
could forever change the heart of man
surely hidden from plain sight
was a power to break the dark of night
an infant cry in perfect peace
would soon be stilling raging seas
for unto us a Savior is born
to bring to life a love forlorn
unto us the Messiah has come
to reach beyond our blinding doubt
and show us what this lifes about
a man like us to walk alongside
with unflinching trust in His Fathers' delight
doing what no other could do
the Son came showing what He knew
a love hoped for but never received
has come in the form of a little baby
living and giving of a life so new
He is the Way for me and for you
rejoice you weary tired and bruised
those broken abandoned neglected and used
for the sinner the liar the murderer and thief
Jesus says come and in Me believe
