That night when Jesus was born
Back two thousand years or so
Guess in the grand scheme of time
It wasn't really that long ago
When Mary laid down
Holding onto Joseph
It wasn't his child but
He believed she was chosen
That night when Jesus was born
Two thousand years ago
When God made a way
God made a way
A way in a manger
God made a way
God made a way
A way in a manger
Wish I could follow the star
To that little town of Bethlehem
Walk through the fields where those wise men
And shepherds watched over him
But what would I say, what would I bring
What else could I do but just worship my king
Wish I could follow the star
To that little town of Bethlehem
Where God made a way
God made a way
A way in a manger
God made a way
God made a way
A way in a manger
In his infinite love
It had to be done
He did the impossible
And gave up his son
Jesus
God made a way
A way in a manger
For God so loved the world
And God still loves the world
Look at all His hands have made
It was God who made a way
For God so loved the world
And God still loves the world
His only son to save
It was God who made a way
As I sit down in the quiet
In the dark of this living room
Snow falling outside my window
I can't help but think of you
That God made a way
God made a way
A way in a manger
There was no other way
God made a way
A way in a manger
