Before time my life was chosen

for this miracle performed,

that through me would come a baby

who would one day be my Lord.

But right now he's just a baby

and the world is not so sure,

cause while some bow down to worship

there are some who laugh and scorn.

But there's a will

and there's a purpose

that I know He must fulfill

and the reason why you chose me

very soon will be revealed.

But for now can I just hold Him

and keep him in my arms

and for now can I just hold Him

and keep Him safe from harm

Lord, I'll give Him back to you 

Little ordinary Mary

little Baby Jesus boy

He's divine in all your planning

but for me he's pride and joy.

but in Him there is a story

that the prophets have foretold,

there is honor, there is glory

there's redemption for us all.

But there's a will

and there's a purpose

that I know He must fulfill

and the reason why you chose me

very soon will be revealed.

But for now can I just hold Him

and keep him in my arms

and for now can I just hold Him

and keep Him safe from harm

Lord, I'll give Him back to you 

Can't even think about Him crucified.

Can't even think that He was born to die.

Innocent baby my heart says why?

Cause he's just a little child.
