He made a way


Longing for a Savior a hopeless world would wait

Sin demanded justice at a price we could not pay

God displayed His mercy, the greatest gift of love

When we could not reach Heaven, Heaven came to us


He made a way in a manger, a way through the Son

Messiah, the promised before time had begun

God so loved this world though He knew what love would cost

He made a way in a manger to make a way to the cross


Bethlehem, a stable, became the throne of grace

For God Himself, our Savior, drew near to take our place

His mother smiled in wonder as the shepherds stood in awe

The Sacrifice of Heaven lay sleeping in the straw
