Joseph’s Song

'joseph'

How could it be?

This baby in my arms sleeping now so peacefully

The Son of God, the angel said,

How could it be?

Lord, I know he's not my son

Not of my flesh, not of my bones

Still Father, let this baby be

The son of my love.

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?

He looks so small, his face and hands so fair

And when he cries the sun seems to disappear

But when he laughs, it shines again

How could it be?

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 could it be?

This baby in my arms, sleeping now so peacefully

The Son of God, the angel said

How could it be?
