Verse 1a

How could it be

This baby in my arms,

Sleeping now, so peacefully?

"The Son of God," the angel said,

How could it be?


Verse 1b

Lord I know, He's not my own

Not of my flesh, not of my bone.

Still Father let this baby be

The son of my love.


Chorus 

Father show me where I fit into this plan of Yours,

How can a man be father to the Son of God?

Lord, for all my life I've been a simple carpenter,

How can I raise a King, How can I raise a King?


Verse 2

He looks so small, His face and hands so fair,

And when He cries the sun just seems to disappear.

But when He laughs, it shines again,

How could it be?
