What Child is this?

I do not know, what Child is this?
Who introduced in humblest way
Born to die, betrayed with kiss
King of kings, the angels say.

Spirit turned to flesh and bone,
Heaven's Kingdom come to earth.
Left behind immortal throne
So His Spirit, could in us birth.

I do not know how to receive
His Words so new, that contradict.
All that I had once believed
His Truth, my will, they both conflict.

When learning of this Man of Words
When reading all His earthly Deeds.
They say it happened long ago
But still the World upon it feeds.

I do not know what Child is this
Who brings salvation to the ones...
That leave themselves behind and reach
For the saint they could become.

I do not know what day was born
In that town, the House of Bread.
Praise God above in Him I live
The man I was, forever dead.

We do not know what day or week
He came through humble virgin birth
We only know He praised the meek
Who will inherit all the earth.

Because I know this little boy,
Who changed the world in Galilee.
With hands to heaven raised in joy
I thank God He's born in me!

Baruch Hashem!

That child's in me.

And so my wish for you this day
Is for this child who changed the world
To reach inside your heart and stay
His banner raised, your flag unfurled.

With Love,

Micha El
