ABE
Well, He cried when He was hungry
ABE
Did all the things that babies do
ABC#
He rocked and He napped on His mother’s lap
AB
And He wiggled and giggled and cooed
ABE
There were the cheers when He took His first step,
ABE
And the tears when He got His first teeth;
ABC#
Almost everything about this little baby
AB
Seemed as natural as it could be.
BEA
But this baby made the angels sing,
BEA
And this baby made a new star shine in the sky.
BEAC#
This baby had come to change the world.
AEBC#AEBC#
This baby was God’s own son, this baby was like no other one.
AEBC#A
This baby was God with us, this baby was Jesus.
ABE
And this baby grew into a young boy,
ABE
Who learned to read and write and wrestle with dad;
ABE
There was the climbin’ of trees and the scrapin’ of knees,
AB
And all the fun that a boy’s born to have.
ABE
He grew taller and some things started changing,
ABE
Like His complexion and the sound of His voice;
ABC#
There was work to be done as a carpenter’s son
AC#
And all the neighbors said He’s such a fine boy.
Chorus:
C#A
And love made Him laugh and death made Him cry.
A#B
With the life that He lived and the death that He died,
C#C#
He showed us heaven with His hands and His heart,
AEBC#
‘Cause this man was God’s own son.
AEBC#
This man was like no other one,
AEBC#
Holy and human right from the start.
Chorus:
This baby was God with us, this baby, this baby was Jesus; this baby was Jesus,
this baby was Jesus.
