The Promised Son ©Susan Bailey
A cold, dark night, a glistening star
Shining bright from afar
Upon the man whose wife would soon
Bear a child from her womb
In poverty, in a manger stall
No one came to help at all
The cold, dark night felt colder still
From hearts so hard, and lack of good will
And here was born the promised Son
Jesus Christ, the Holy One
The pain was great, her labor long
She wondered how she could be strong
Yet in her heart she felt no fear
For the child would soon appear
Onto the straw which made his bed
His mother laid His precious head
The fragile babe was heard to cry
She held Him closely to her side
7And here was born the promised Son
Jesus Christ, the Holy One
Glory to our God
For His Son has come down
Made the least of all
That the poor and just be found
The shepherds came there to adore
The tiny baby which she had bore
And three great kings did humbly kneel
Their wonder, they could not conceal
This tender child, the promised Son
Jesus Christ, the Holy One
