Manger In My Heart

An angel sent from Heaven came to Mary, full of grace
He told her she'd found favor and the Lord shone in her face
She said, "Let it be done to me according to your word."
She made a place for him; she held him tight
In a lowly cave one silent night...

She placed him in some swaddling clothes
And she wrapped all her love around him
In a cave, a stable bare
In a manger in the dark

I can't think of any better place to start
Than right here in the dark and lowliness of my own heart
At times I do forget about the water and the call
That's when I lose my way, that's when I stumble
That's when I fall and then I pray...

Can I be your swaddling clothes?
Can I wrap all my love around you?
Can I be your stable bare?
Oh, the manger in my heart.

Well, it came to pass a Saviour Child was born in poverty;
Emmanuel, the Son of God, Divine Humility
Bringing peace on earth and in my heart a pure and simple love
And now when I lose my way, and when I stumble
When I fall I look to you and pray...

Lord I'll be your swaddling clothes.
I wanna wrap all my love around you.
Let me be your stable bare;
Oh, the manger in my heart.

Alleluia to the Messiah
Alleluia to the Lord
Alleluia, Alleluia Hosanna
Alleluia, Alleluia. Repeat 1X
