You and me we use so very many clumsy words
The noise of what we often say is not worth being heard
When the Father's wisdom wanted to communicate His Love
He spoke it in one final perfect Word____
He spoke the incarnation, and then so was born the son
His final Word was Jesus, He needed no other one
Spoke flesh and blood do He could bleed and make a way divine
And so was born the baby who would die___ to make it mine
Repeat intro
And so the Father's fondest thought took on flesh and bone
He spoke the living luminous Word at once His will was done
And so the transformation that in man had been unheard
took place in God the Father as He spoke that final Word
and so the Light became alive and manna became Man
Eternity stepped into time so we could understand
at the end:
and so was born the Baby who would die_______ to make it mine______
