‘Only A Baby’
Only a baby, only a child
Like all of us, only here for a while
But He changed this whole world in the short time He was here
Born into a world that’s filled with hatred, filled with fear
Only the son of a carpenter
And Mary, His mother, only a girl
Let me tell you ’bout this child, born so long ago
God, the creator, loved this world so
That He sent His son, a light for all to see
God’s loving grace made flesh and blood, just like you and me
To live and die and feel our pain
When all else ends, only God’s love remains
Only a teacher, only a man
Only a mission to live out God’s plan
But he changed this whole world in the short time he was here
Living in a world that’s filled with hatred, filled with fear
Only three years of His ministry
Demonstrating God’s love for humanity
Let me tell you ’bout this man, born so long ago
God, the creator loved this world so
That he sent His son, a light for all to see
God’s loving grace made flesh and blood just like you and me
To live and die and feel our pain
When all else ends, only God’s love remains
Only Christ Jesus, only God’s son
Only a savior, God’s chosen one
Sent to save this whole world in the short time He was here
Sent into a world that’s filled with hatred, filled with fear
Not only in the Bible, so long ago
God’s still at work in my heart I know
Let me tell you ’bout this child, born so long ago
God, the creator, loved this world so
That He sent His son, a light for all to see
God’s loving grace made flesh and blood just like you and me
To live and die and feel our pain
When all else ends, only God’s love remains
When all else ends, only God’s love remains
