I Had Seen Baby Jesus

It was a warm Christmas night
Driving my Harley this time of year
Was a treat for me, felt so right
I drove it down the highway with no fear.

As I glanced to the left
There shined a star so bright
It had caught my eye
Decided to pull off to the right


I started my Harley, went on my way
That star never had disappeared
The sky was filled with so many stars
Could see them up there so clear

As I got closer to town, there was a church
off to the right of the street.
The Christmas music being played.
Was so beautiful and upbeat.

There was a manger scene close by,
So decided to take a little peak, too.
I went over to the manger that was empty
When an image of baby Jesus showed through.

I had just realized that the Jesus I had seen
Was truly Him that was there that night.
It was truly the most beautiful sight

There I knelt down beside the manger
And gave my life to Him, too.
That was the best Christmas gift I ever had
The night I met Jesus, hope someday you do.
