In a land far away Time stood still Long ago There were shepherds in fields Or at least this is how The story goes The story goes Woman withchild And an inn with no room Born in a manger For telling it tomb This is how The story goes But it is more than a fable And it's more than a fairytale And more than my mind can conceive
I believe The Wiseman saw The baby boy the angels Called the son of God Heaven's child The great I am Born to take away my sins Through nailed pierced hands Emmanuel has come I believe
Two thousand years Still the story lives on God's gift to us Sent to earth Wrapped in flesh His only son His only son And the heartbeat of heaven Confounded our wisdom But it's still the simple truth That sets me free
I believe The Wiseman saw The baby boy The angels called the son of God Heaven's child The great I am Born to take away my sins Through nailed pierced hands Emmanuel has come And I believe
Precious child How can it be that God's great plan For history Would send you to The lonely tree That you would come For one like me
I believe In a cross I believe he came For one He came for all Heavens child became a man Gave his life for me In spite of all I am I believe I believe Oh I believe Christmas lives in me I believe
