Anthem - 11.28.10 - "But Only a Baby Came"

The choir had a beautiful anthem this morning... 


Only a Baby Came

They waited for a King, with crown of gold,
To save the world as was foretold,
A Sovereign wise, a ruler bold,
But only a baby came.

The waited for a prince to gain the throne,
A Savior sent by God alone,
A Lord with Kingdom yet unknown,
But only a baby came.

Twas but a babe who came that night,
The wonder to proclaim;
With brightest star to shed its light and
Set the world aflame!

They waited for a world of truth divine,
A heavn’ly Dove, a sacred sign,
A living brance from Jesse’s line,
But only a baby came.

Only a babe to bear the shame.
Only a babe with love His name,
Only a lowly Holy baby came.
