Oh Newborn King
Oh newborn king
to whom we the angels sing
You have left your throne
To become a man.
If sadness in heaven is such a thing.
Then we the Angels are beginning to understand.
You look so vulnerable, weak and tiny
But we know that you are invincible, fearsome and mighty.
Your all authoritative voice has shook the earth
Humbling emperors to their lowly worth.
Seas have been parted
Cities have been destroyed
With your spirit soldiers have shouted down a wall.
Your anointed nations have stood against those deployed
Only for they to return to their own and watch their nation fall.
You'll stand upon Zion
and roar like a lion.
Every tongue will confess to the great l am,
but for now only a few shepherds know
that a good shepherd will grow
To become the sacrificial lamb.
Oh how holy you are
That man has only known afar.
Now wise men kneel with gifts as you
sleep under a star.
Yes you our beloved, it's always been you.
Now let our wingspan
stretch across the land
in honor of what you have come down to do.. It is finished....
