Stephen Curtis Chapman<\/p>\n
Well, He cried when He was hungry,
\nDid all the things that babies do;
\nHe rocked and He napped on His mother\u2019s lap,
\nAnd He wiggled and giggled and cooed.
\nThere were the cheers when He took His first step,
\nAnd the tears when He got His first teeth;
\nAlmost everything about this little baby
\nSeemed as natural as it could be.<\/p>\n
CHORUS
\nBut this baby made the angels sing,
\nAnd this baby made a new star shine in the sky.
\nThis baby had come to change the world.
\nThis baby was God\u2019s own son, this baby was like no other one.
\nThis baby was God with us, this baby was Jesus.<\/p>\n
And this baby grew into a young boy,
\nWho learned to read and write and wrestle with dad;
\nThere was the climbin\u2019 of trees and the scrapin\u2019 of knees,
\nAnd all the fun that a boy\u2019s born to have.
\nHe grew taller and some things started changing,
\nLike His complexion and the sound of His voice;
\nThere was work to be done as a carpenter\u2019s son
\nAnd all the neighbors said He\u2019s such a fine boy.<\/p>\n
But this boy made the angels sing,
\nAnd this boy made a new star shine in the sky.
\nThis boy had come to change the world.
\nThis boy was God\u2019s own son, this boy was like no other one.
\nThis boy was God with us. This boy became a man,<\/p>\n
And love made Him laugh and death made Him cry.
\nWith the life that He lived and the death that He died,
\nHe showed us heaven with His hands and His heart,
\n\u2018Cause this man was God\u2019s own son.
\nThis man was like no other one,
\nHoly and human right from the start.<\/p>\n
(chorus)<\/p>\n
This baby was God with us, this baby, this baby was Jesus; this baby was Jesus, this baby was Jesus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
