Love Has Brought Him Here

In the crowded streets of this desert town

I've heard the rumor going 'round

But it doesn't seem the time or place

For a Savior child to bring His grace

There's too much trouble, greed and tears

Who could greet Him, conscience clear?

And who among us would believe

Till the trumpets sound His song

That the promised one has come

Then a star came out and the cattle low

And the street turned bright with a manger's glow

I thought I heard the message clear that love has brought Him here

Who are these people, peasant poor

Who sit inside the stable door

Where is the sense in such a choice

What have we waited for

Seems a King should have much more

Then the star turned bright and the mother smiled

At this gift of life her precious child

I saw right then the message clear that love has brought Him here

Then the star came out and the cattle low

And the street shone bright with a manger's glow

And this old world will one day know the love that's brought Him here

The love that's brought Him here

The love that's brought Him here
