lirik lagu cry of a tiny babe – bruce cockburn
mary grows a child without the help of a man
joseph gets upset because he doesn’t understand
angel comes to joseph in a powerful dream
says god did this and your part of his scheme
joseph comes to mary with his hat in his hand
says, forgive me, i thought you’d been with some other man
she says what if i had been, but i wasn’t anyway
and guess what, i felt the baby kick today
like a stone on the surface of a still river
driving the ripples on forever
redemption rips through the surface of time in the cry of a tiny babe
the child is born in the fullness of time
three wise astrologers take note of the signs
come to pay their respects to the fragile little king
get pretty close to wrecking everything
cause the governing body of the holy land
is that of herod a paranoid man
who when he hears there’s a baby born, king of the jews
sends death squads to k!ll all male children under two
but that same bright angel warns the parents in a dream
and they head out for the border and getaway clean
like a stone on the surface of a still river
driving the ripples on forever
redemption rips through the surface of time in the cry of a tiny babe
and there are others who know about this miracle birth
the humblest of people catch a glimpse of their worth
for it isn’t to the palace that the christ child comes
but to shepards and street people, hookers and bums
and the message is clear if you have ears to hear
that forgiveness is given for your guilt and your fears
it’s a christmas gift that you don’t have to buy
there’s a future shining in a baby’s eye
like a stone on the surface of a still river
driving the ripples on forever
redemption rips through the surface of time in the cry of a tiny babe
like a stone on the surface of a still river
driving the ripples on forever
redemption rips through the surface of time in the cry of a tiny babe
