I Believe

1 verse In a land far away time stood still long ago There were shepherds in fields Or at least this is how the story goes The story goes

2 verse Woman with child and an inn with no room Born in a manger foretelling a tomb This is how the story goes

But it's more than a fable, and it's more than a fairytale And more than my mind can conceive

I believe the wise men saw The baby born the angels called the son of God Heaven's child, the Great I Am Born to take away my sins through nail-pierced hands Emmanuel has come, I believe

Two thousand years, still the story lives on God's gift to us, sent to earth wrapped in flesh His only Son, His only Son

And the heartbeat of heaven confounded our wisdom But it's still the simple truth that sets me free

I believe the people saw The man who lived the angels called the son of God Heaven's child, the Great I Am Came to take away my sins through nail-pierced hands Emmanuel has come, and I believe

Precious Lord, how can it be that God's great plan for history Would send you to the lonely tree That you would come for one like me

Last I believe in a cross I believe he came for one, he came for all The Son of God, the Great I Am Gave his life for me and then He rose again I believe, I believe, oh I believe Jesus lives in me, I believe
