Shepherds gaze in wonder While angel voices sing. The night of nights has come And brought the world The long-awaited King. The earth is filled with gladness And yet the heavens weep. For heaven's eyes can see He was born to die for me. Jesus, baby Jesus, Is that a tear in Your eye? Jesus, sweet baby Jesus, You must know That You were born to die. It must have broken God's heart For the future He could see. Yet He formed the hands And feet knowing one day They'd be nailed to a tree. So all the world could know Him, A gift came from above. For God so loved the world That He gave His only Son. Jesus, baby Jesus, With a tear of love in Your eye. Jesus, sweet baby Jesus, You knew You were born to die. So, Jesus, thank You, Jesus, For Your gift of eternal life. My Jesus, Jesus, 'Cause for me You were born to die.
