Heaven's Child

Verse 1 She rocked her tiny baby To warm him from the cold Hardly what she pictured In the prophecies of old It seemed almost impossible To think it could be true But as she pondered in her heart She knew Chorus1 This was heaven's child This was heaven's child In an earthen vessel Wrapped in Glory, meek and mild Joseph wept with wonder As Mary sweetly smiled Because they knew This was heaven's child Verse 2 The angels must have missed Him As they sang Him to sleep But they marveled at the promises This baby came to keep His Father must have felt at once Great sadness and great joy As He watched His little baby boy Chorus1 Bridge Mary's little baby boy Was Joseph's pride and joy Still they wished the world would see He was so much more Chorus 2 He was heaven's child He was heaven's child In an earthen stable Wrapped in glory, meek and mild Joseph wept with wonder As Mary sweetly smiled Because they knew This was heaven's child Tag Because they knew This was heaven's child
