|
Hold that blanket closer |
|
Mary dear |
|
All the world waits with you for your day |
|
But for now the wind is cold and it's drear |
|
And Bethlehem's still so far away |
|
Do you remember the way you felt back then? |
|
Joy and wonder filled your soul and when |
|
The angel slipped away |
|
You knew your life would never be the same (Chorus) |
|
And now you're travelling, travelling on a road to |
|
Bethlehem |
|
Wandering thoughts fly away |
|
If you knew the road that lay ahead of |
|
Him Would you break down and cry? |
|
Your child is born to die |
|
Feel that hand of strength upon your own |
|
A husband's love that guides along the way |
|
And as his understanding has grown, |
|
His hopes too are centered on that day |
|
For do you remember the way he looked back then, |
|
Pain and sorrow filled his eyes until when |
|
The angel came to say |
|
The Savior's birth was meant to be this way |
|
Think back on that promise you receieved |
|
For him in whom the prophets long believed |
|
Now belongs to you, you've been chosen too |
|
But He's the |
|
One Who's gonna shine |
|
We call His name |
|
Jesus, Immanuel |
|
He'll save |
|
His people from sin and hell |
|
And of His kingdom there will be no end |
