I Believe

In a land far away time stood still

Long ago there were shepherds in fields

Or at least this is how the story goes

The story goes woman with child

And a man with no room

Born in a manger for telling it too

This is how the story goes

But it is more than a fable

And it’s more than a fairytale

And more than my mind can conceive

I believe the Wise man saw the baby born

The angels called the son of God, Heaven’s child, the great I am

Born to take away my sins through nailed pierced hands

Emmanuel has come

I believe two thousand years still the story lives on

God’s gift to us sent to earth wrapped in flesh

His only son, His only son

And the heartbeat of heaven

Confounded our wisdom

But it’s still the simple truth

That sets me free

I believe the Wise man saw the baby born

That the angels called the son of God, Heaven’s child, the great I am

Born to take away my sins through nailed pierced hands

Emmanuel has come

And I believe precious child how can it be

That God’s great plan for His story

Would send you to the lonely tree

That you would come for one like me

I believe in a cross, I believe He came for one, he came for all

Heavens child became a plan, gave his life for me

In spite of all I am, I believe, I believe, oh I believe

Christmas lives in me

I believe
