BABE IN THE MANGER

Charles H. Perkins


The Babe in the Manger
When God proclaimed in the Garden
That the Seed of the Woman would crush the head of the snake,
That Seed was the Babe in the manger…
When the angels proclaimed to the shepherds that a Savior is born,
That Savior was the Babe in the manger.
When John said that God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son…
That Son was the Babe in the manger…
When John the Baptist said, “Behold the Lamb of God…”
That Lamb was the Babe in the manger.
The Savior hanging on the cross was that Babe that lay in the manger.
The Savior that lay dead three days and three nights in the tomb
Was the Babe that slept in the manger.
The Savior that rose from the dead is the Babe that was lifted out of the manger.
He Who took away the sins of the world was that Babe in the manger.
The Son of God was the Babe in the manger…
The same Jesus Who is sitting at the right hand of The Father
Was that Babe in the manger.
The Savior Who says, “I stand at the door and knock…”
The Savior Who says, “I only want to love you…”
The Savior Who says, “Please, don’t push Me away…”
The Savior Who says, “Let Me in your heart…”
Was the Babe in the manger…
The Savior Who is The Lord of Lords and King of Kings
Was That Babe in the manger

And that Babe in the manger is Who we are celebrating.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
