Starlit Skies
Behind His eyes
The starlit skies
First showed off their dance
Before His word
Carved them out a home
A smile that radiates
The kindness of the fathers heart
No words of yet
But the sun sweeps cheek to cheek
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Hear the lion's roar
In the little baby's cry
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
See the rising dawn
As he ushers in the light
His tiny hands
With a fist full of dirt
That's where it all began
The heart of heaven
Planted into every crack
His mother admires
With tears in her eyes
She loves Him with everything
Yet that joyful tide
Is a puddle in the light
Of the flood that her child brings
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Hear the lion's roar
In the little baby's cry
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
See the rising dawn
As he ushers in the light
Promises personified
Hope with skin and bone
A scandal child
To set the pace of grace
The prince of peace
With teething screams
On not-so-silent nights
A plan that logic strives to comprehend
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Hear the lion's roar
In the little baby's cry
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
See the rising dawn
As he ushers in the light
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Hear the lion's roar
In the little baby's cry
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
See the rising dawn
As he ushers in the light
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Hear the lion's roar
In the little baby's cry
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
See the rising dawn
As he ushers in the light
The starlit skies
First showed off their dance
Before His word
Carved them out a home
A smile that radiates
The kindness of the fathers heart
No words of yet
But the sun sweeps cheek to cheek
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Hear the lion's roar
In the little baby's cry
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
See the rising dawn
As he ushers in the light
His tiny hands
With a fist full of dirt
That's where it all began
The heart of heaven
Planted into every crack
His mother admires
With tears in her eyes
She loves Him with everything
Yet that joyful tide
Is a puddle in the light
Of the flood that her child brings
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Hear the lion's roar
In the little baby's cry
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
See the rising dawn
As he ushers in the light
Promises personified
Hope with skin and bone
A scandal child
To set the pace of grace
The prince of peace
With teething screams
On not-so-silent nights
A plan that logic strives to comprehend
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Hear the lion's roar
In the little baby's cry
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
See the rising dawn
As he ushers in the light
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Hear the lion's roar
In the little baby's cry
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
See the rising dawn
As he ushers in the light
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Hear the lion's roar
In the little baby's cry
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
See the rising dawn
As he ushers in the light
