This Little Child - Scott Wesley Brown

Who would of tho't that long ago

So very far away

A little child would be born

And in a manger laid

And who would have tho't this little child

Was born the King of kings

The Son of just a carpenter

For whom the angels sing

And who would have tho't that as He grew

And with other children played

This child with whom they laughed and sang

Would die for them some day

And who would have tho't this little child

Could make a blind man see

Feed the hungry make rich the poor

And set the sinner free

Oh who would have tho't this little child

Was who the prophets said

Would take away the sins of man

And rise up from the dead

O I believe and I will always sing

This little child is the King

O I believe and I will always sing

This little child

He is the King of kings

Many years have come and gone

Yet this world remains the same

Empires have been built and fallen

Only time has made a change

Nation against nation

Brother against brother

Men so filled with hatred

Killing one another

And over half the world is starving

While our banner of decency is torn

Debating over disarmament

Killing children before they're born

And fools who march to win the right

To justify their sin

Oh ev'ry nation that has fallen

Has fallen from within

Yet in the midst of this darkness

There is a hope a light that burns

This little child the King of kings

Some day will return

And I believe and I will always sing

This little child is the King

And I believe and I will always sing

This little child

He is the King of kings

Who would have tho't this little child

Is who the prophets said

Will return to judge this world

The living and the dead

Oh can't you see that long ago

So very far away

This little child our only hope

Was born a King that day

And can't you see that here and now

As unto Him we pray

This Lord of lords who is our hope

Is still King today

He's still the King today
