Born to die

They never knew
A dark night
Always had
The Son's light
On their face
Perfect in glory
Broken
By the story
Of untold grace
Come that day

Majesty
Had come down
Glory
Had succumed now
To flesh and bone
In the arms
Of a manger
In the hands
Of strangers
That could not know
Just who they hold

Chorus:
All the Angels
Filled the sky
And I can't help
But wonder why
Why the King
Would choose to be
Be a baby
Born for me
Be a baby
Born to die

And all fell silent
For the cry
Of an infant
the voice of God
Was dividing history
For those
with eyes to see
the Son would shine
From earth that night

(Chorus)

To break the chains
Of guilt and sin
To find us here
To pull us in
So we can join
In Heaven's song
And with one voice
Around the throne

(Chorus)
