Tears are falling, hearts are breaking, how we need to hear from God
You’ve been promised, weve been waiting;
Welcome holy Child, welcome holy Child.
Hope that you don’t mind our manger, how I wish we would have known
But long awaited holy Stranger, make Yourself at home
Please make Yourself at home.
Bring your peace into our violence, bid our hungry souls be filled
World now breaking heaven’s silence,
Welcome to our world, welcome to our world.
Fragile fingers sent to heal us, tender brow prepared for thorn
Tiny heart whose blood will save us,
Unto us is born, unto us is born.
So wrap our injured flesh around You, breathe our air and walk our sod
Rob our sin and make us holy,
Perfect Son of God, perfect Son of God.
Welcome to our world.
Isn’t that by Chris Rice? I absolutly love that song! Every Christmas there is a play on TV that we watch and a couple (a.k.a. Mary and Joseph) sings that song… I cried last time.
Love ya!
God bless,
Kourtney
I think Chris Rice may sing it, but I believe it was written by Michael W. Smith. I love it too!
