When Love First Cried
(Verse 1)
There were no sounds of Christmas Carols
On that most Holy night
Just the cry of a baby boy
That would one day bring us life
The beauty of this one birth
Of a child so small and frail
With arms reaching out
To a world he'd one day heal
(Chorus)
On that most unexpected night
A Holy and precious sight
When mercy and Hope poured out
And Heaven's grace came down
And one life was born to give
That beautiful and perfect gift
That all men may truly live
On the night when Love first cried
(Verse 2)
It was a night like any other
Turned prophetic and profound
As shepherds fell to their knees
The angels gathered round
A miracle in front of them
The promise is fulfilled
Let the earth receive her King today
The Savior is revealed
(Bridge)
Love cried out, to the lost and lowly
To this broken world, that all would believe
Let every tongue, confess that You are Holy
because your love still cries out
