Babe

Christ left the Fatherís throne

Where the worship of angels heíd known

Taking on human flesh and bone

So that the Truth at last could be shown.

Realms of glory on high

Could not avert His eye

For greater Glory called

From a feeble cattle stall.

So mystery is displayed

The ultimate penalty paid

Was it worth it?

Was it worth it?

Only God can know.

And God has deemed it so.

The Glory now descends

Tabernacles with us men

For He had counted the true cost

Even before this world was lost.

Salvationnow has come

Bound up in a beloved Son

Was it worth it?

Was it worth it?

Oh the priviledge he would not grasp

Grace is born in this babyís first gaspÖ
