Mercy in A Manger

By Evan Craft

Lyrics

Verse 1

There is a light

That burns for all to see

Hope for humanity, the only Son of God

Sent down to earth

Not in triumphant stride

But with an infant’s cry

The perfect gift of love


Chorus

In Bethlehem

A child is born

The King of kings

The Lord of lords

Emmanuel

God here with us

Behold the Savior

Mercy in a manger


Verse 2

Given to us

The rich, the poor, the weak

The rulers and the thieves

Yet none was worthy of

This sacrifice

How could we understand?

That Heaven’s holy lamb

Had come to bear the Cross


Bridge

Glory, Glory

In Excelsis Deo
