One amongst many in a crowded town
Merely a child, yet fully a God
Of whom had come, His will at hand
By form, this Christ seemed hardly odd
In sacrifice, He brought to all
The promise of eternity
In years in time, my era rose
And so, this blessing came to me
I’ve come to trust what I can’t see
A Lord, like wind, hidden from sight
The only King to ever live
Whom disbelievers viewed with spite
In this life, which I’ve claimed my own
It is owed, more so, to Jesus
Whom has conquered, risen, and healed
Ignoring the doubt and distrust
The beloved Savior, whom I love
More so than the Earth which He paved
Not in thanks to what I’ve been given
Rather, in thanks to what He gave
Merely a child, yet fully a God
Of whom had come, His will at hand
By form, this Christ seemed hardly odd
In sacrifice, He brought to all
The promise of eternity
In years in time, my era rose
And so, this blessing came to me
I’ve come to trust what I can’t see
A Lord, like wind, hidden from sight
The only King to ever live
Whom disbelievers viewed with spite
In this life, which I’ve claimed my own
It is owed, more so, to Jesus
Whom has conquered, risen, and healed
Ignoring the doubt and distrust
The beloved Savior, whom I love
More so than the Earth which He paved
Not in thanks to what I’ve been given
Rather, in thanks to what He gave
