Lyrics

A star appears The night begins to sing Something mighty is unfolding A star hangs bright against the sky Announcing that tonight the world will change The shepherds out there in the field Hear angels voices fall like rain An angel speaks do not be afraid For unto you a Savior is born today Christ the Lord your light and grace They rush with wonder on their face And find the holy Child One single breath God becomes man Eternity itself Wrapped up in swaddling clothes One single breath And nothing stays the same The holy Child Sent by the Father into night A light that warms A peace that comes Where sorrow kept its watch You are the stillness holding me The kindness healing deep within You are the love That lets me start again The wise men follow this one star Through desert sands and distances far They search to find the newborn King For Scriptures say that here the new age begins Gold frankincense and myrrh they bring And fall down trembling marveling A King lies in a feeding trough The Greatest rests within the small One single breath God becomes man Eternity itself Wrapped up in swaddling clothes One single breath And nothing stays the same The holy Child Sent by the Father into night A light that warms A peace that comes Where sorrow kept its watch You are the stillness holding me The kindness healing deep within You are the love That lets me start again From Heavens throne into the night The Maker makes Himself so small The Lamb who will be crucified The Lion who defeats the dark The cradle points toward the cross The cross points toward the crown above And I fall down on my knees Before the Child who holds it all The holy Child Sent by the Father into night A light that warms A peace that comes Where sorrow kept its watch You are the stillness holding me The kindness healing deep within You are the love That lets me start again A star a Child one single breath And God is man is near
