Heartbeat of a Baby

Just a shepherd boy, a face without a name
The littlest of lambs I watch each day
Dreaming of the story long foretold
Wondering if I will see it unfold

I was waiting for a brilliant light
When it came along it caused such a fright
My heart confused from years of doubt and worry
When my feet started to move in such a hurry

Hope of hopes, Dreams of dreams
In the heartbeat of a baby
Long awaited relief
Every heartache finds meaning
In the heartbeat of a baby

I climbed the mountains, waded waters deep
Crossed the desert floor until it burned my feet
I crawled the valley steep in desperation
On the search to find the source of my salvation

Hope of hopes, Dreams of dreams
In the heartbeat of a baby
Long awaited relief
Every heartache finds meaning

The ground gave way beneath my feet
Began to shake, began to heave
The dying earth and midnight sky
Gave way to glorious light

And all I had ever done before
Who I had been, won't matter anymore
Just one sound of a baby's cry
Once was dead, Now I'm alive

Hope of hopes, Dreams of dreams
In the heartbeat of a baby

Hope of hopes, Dreams of dreams
In the heartbeat of a baby
Long awaited relief
Every heartache finds meaning
In the heartbeat of a baby
