|
A young couple walks through the temple door |
|
Carrying salvation in their arms |
|
A sight for old eyes |
|
Redemption draws nigh |
|
In the eyes of this little baby boy |
|
The prophecies are weaving together |
|
And the waiting is coming to an end |
|
God promised I'd see His Messiah |
|
With these failing eyes |
|
Before I went home |
|
And God kept His Word |
|
Chorus |
|
He is called Jesus |
|
Son of David, Son of Joseph, Son of God |
|
He is called Jesus |
|
The Prince of Peace and the Holy One |
|
Of Israel, |
|
Messiah, Redeemer and King |
|
He is called Jesus |
|
God's word made flesh for me |
|
They brought Him to me for a blessing |
|
With no idea of the blessing they bring |
|
Two doves as a ransom |
|
But their little lamb |
|
Who will break their hearts |
|
Would redeem their souls |
|
[Chorus] |
|
You can take these eyes |
|
For I have seen Your salvation |
|
Oh, You can take this prayer |
|
And bring me at last into Your Peace |
|
Oh and You can take these hands |
|
I have held the light of the nations |
|
And the glory of your people Israel |
|
[Chorus] |
|
He's the promise made flesh for me |
