What will happen to this baby, Mary knows someday they must part;
God stepped into the future and it nearly broke His’ heart.
This Christ child, on Him they will place the blame;
All because he was sent to save the world in God’s Holy name.
Hold tight your 1st born, Mary, as He cleaves to your breast;
Love and care for Him and God will do the rest.
Look upon His’ sweet precious face, while to Him you gently sing;
Knowing this child of yours is destined to be the one and only King.
The star that shines so bright, that hangs up above;
Shows the world this child was sent with God’s undying love.
But there’s a shadow hanging over Him to keep the world from being lost;
This innocent baby already knows that He is destined for the cross.
