behold the savior

Lyrics

oh, what innocence, sleeping in a manger, under dreamless skies, see the newborn king, trading every glory, for a silent night, here is the promise we have waited for, he will not leave us in the dark, he will bear our weight, he will wear our shame, come lift him high, behold the savior, jesus christ, law of love and light, come lift him high, behold the savior, veiled deity, praise of every angel, shepherds bowing low, sweet humility, mercy as a baby, god in flesh and bone, here is the promise we have waited for, he will not leave us in the dark, he will bear our weight, he will wear our shame, come lift him high, behold the savior, jesus christ, law of love and light, come lift him high, behold the savior, behold the savior, emmanuel, emmanuel, here is the promise we have waited for, he will not leave us in the dark, he is the promise we have waited for, the cry of every searching heart, he will bear our weight, he will wear our shame, come lift him high, behold the savior, jesus christ, law of love and light, come lift him high, behold the savior, come lift him high, behold the savior, come lift him high, behold the savior, behold the savior
