Looking down
Upon this One
Seems so easy to embrace
That this is just a new born One
Just like any other babe
Looking down
Upon this One
Crying helplessly He lays
In the stillness Now he sleeps
Just like any other babe
You're lying there, so helpless
You're lying there, dependent
You're lying there
You're unable to stand on Your own
You're unable to do anything at all
Looking down
Upon this One
Hands that grasp
Not hold a thing
Yet all the while
His mouth does speak
He's upholding Everything
Looking down
Upon this One
Eyes resting so tenderly
Yet all the while His eyes you see
Full of fire
And jealousy
You're lying there, so helpless
You're lying there, dependent
You're lying there
You're unable to stand on Your own
You're unable to do anything at all
You are Lord
(You are Emmanuel)
God made flesh
(Christ the King)
King of glory coming
Crowned in lowliness
(Who is like You Lord)
Christ is born
(You are Emmanuel)
Come to earth
(Christ the King)
God from everlasting
Born a virgin birth
Can you hear Him crying
Tears streaming down
Can you hear Him crying
Hope within Him found
Can you hear Him crying
This One who's before time
Can you hear Him crying
YAHWEH, fully divine
Can you see Him sleep
As shepherds watch amazed
Can you see Him sleep
As heaven stands to gaze
Can you see Him sleep
This One who formed the world
Can you see Him sleep
As He cannot speak a word
Can you hear the sound
Of angels who rejoice
Can you hear the sound
Of the father's Mighty voice
Can you hear the sound
This is my beloved Son
Can you hear the sound
He is the Chosen One
You are Lord
(You are Emmanuel)
God made flesh
(Christ the King)
King of glory coming
Crowned in lowliness
(Who is like You Lord)
Christ is born
(You are Emmanuel)
Come to earth
(Christ the King)
God from everlasting
Born a virgin birth
