Heaven’s Child

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

This was heaven's child
This 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

The angels must have missed Him
As thеy sang Him to sleep
But they marveled at thе 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

'Cause this was heaven's child
This 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

Mary's little baby boy
Was Joseph's pride and joy
Still, they wished the world would see
That He was so much more

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
Because they knew
This was heaven's child
