As I cradle you in my arms and hold you to my chest
As I gaze upon your tender face, I know that I am blest
Oh Little Child, Oh Precious Babe
For on this night one is born who will save
My soul rejoices, but my heart is heavy
As I sense the coming anguish already
But you cradle my chin and lift my face
And I am wrapped in Heaven's Embrace
You look into my eyes and all I feel is peace
And in that moment, time itself would cease
For God himself has looked at me with love
And to have that alone is more than enough
