Child Like This Lyrics by Jon Thurlow

Songs About Jesus

2011

[Verse 1]
In the past You spoke to us
At different times and different ways
But today You're speaking through Your Son
For unto us a Child is born
His name will be called "Wonderful"
On the throne of David, He shall reign
[Chorus]
He's our Emmanuel
The divine
Now made flesh
Come to dwell with men
This is Christ the Lord
Messiah
And His blood will save
Us from our sins
[Post-Chorus]
I've never seen a Child like this before
Never seen a Child like this before
Never seen a Child like this before
[Verse 2]
For many years the ones in darkness longed to see a shining light
Now today a light for them has come
The Spirit of the Lord is on this One who has good news for the poor
He will make the blinded eyes to see
He will come and set the captives free
[Chorus]
He's our Emmanuel
The divine
Now made flesh
Come to dwell with men
And this is Christ the Lord
Messiah
And His blood will save
Us from our sins
[Post-Chorus]
I've never seen a Child like this before
I've never seen a Child like this before
Never seen a Child like this before
[Bridge]
And I can hear the angels singing
"Glory, glory to God in the highest"
And I can hear the angels singing
"Glory, glory to God in the highest"
And I can hear the angels singing
"Glory, glory to God in the highest"
And I can hear the angels singing
"Glory, glory to God in the highest
Oh glory, glory to God in the highest
Oh glory, glory to God in the highest
And glory, glory to God in the highest"
