When Christ Was Born

When Christ was born
There was no halo o'er his head
There were no edicts to be read
It was just another day
When Christ was born
There were no harps to play him song
There were no cheering, crowds to throng
Only cattle in the stall
But there were angels in the sky
And there were choirs that sung on high
Of God come down to Man
And a Kingdom that would stand
And there were prophecies come true
A covenant anew
And everything changed
When Christ was born
When Christ was born
There was no bed to cradle Him
There was no palace and no inn
He didn't have a home
When Christ was born
There were no soldiers guarding by
As a madman sought the Child
His family fled like refugees
But there were angels in the sky
And a star that gave His light
To guide the seers and shepherds near
To see the glorious sight
And countless souls would live
Eternity to give
Worship wrapped in humble rags for Him
When Christ was born
When Christ was born
When Christ our Lord was born
